Join Vets for Climate Action for our Special Event Screening of the environmental documentary Corals' Last Stand on Thursday 21st August at 7pm AEST.
Corals' Last Stand follows the voyage of a team of prominent Australians including author Tim Winton and musician John Butler as they travel to remote Scott Reef to bring worldwide attention to the impact that plans to drill for oil and gas will have on this special place.
This half hour documentary asks whether Australia can really afford to exploit this so far untapped gas reserve in a time of growing community concern at rising global temperatures. And if it does will Scott Reef and the life it supports be the collateral damage of that decision?
Australia's iconic Scott Reef in Western Australia is not only a global natural treasure, but a vital ecosystem that supports countless species, coastal communities, and industries. Its decline is a powerful and urgent reminder that climate change is not a distant threat, it's happening now, with real and devastating impacts on biodiversity and animal welfare. By sharing this film, we hope to inspire action, spark conversation, and reinforce the critical connection between a safe climate and the wellbeing of animals and ecosystems. This aligns with our mission to support strong, science-based climate solutions that safeguard all life.
Following the film, stay with us for a Q&A and open discussion, where we’ll unpack:
What’s happening at Scott Reef and why it matters
How climate change and fossil fuel projects are affecting marine life
What we can do, individually and collectively, to help protect this incredible place
This is more than a film, it’s a call to action.
Vets for Climate Action is proud to be hosting a screening of Coral’s Last Stand because the film speaks directly to the values that drive our organisation, protecting the health of animals, people, and the environment we all depend on.
