Most tourists who visit Perth make it out to Rottnest Island to visit the cute quokkas and marvel at the island’s lonely wind turbine, which once attracted the wrath of former Prime Minister Tony Abbott. But just beyond Rottnest lies a much less-explored region - Perth Canyon, one of the best places in the world to spot the endangered blue whale, the largest animal on the planet.
We spoke with Emma from School Strike 4 Climate on Thursday when she visited the Rainbow Warrior in Fremantle during its Whales Not Woodside Ship Tour to learn more about how she became involved in climate activism, what motivates her, and get her thoughts on Meg O’Neil and Woodside’s Burrup Hub gas expansion.
Woodside, Australia’s biggest gas company, has a big problem that it’s trying to hide, and they’re looking to hide it in one of our most precious ocean environments.
It's no secret that we really love whales. Here are just some moments over the past 50 years of Greenpeace fighting to protect the gentle giants of the ocean.
You might have heard us celebrating a record number of appeals lodged last month against Woodside’s North West Shelf extension to 2070. So what does it all mean, and why does it matter?
The Safeguard Mechanism was introduced in 2016 by the Tony Abbot government. Now it's being re-vamped – but we still need to make it tougher on big polluters like Woodside.
