Great to see Sam Hearn, Mayor of @MornPenShire, calling for @rwynnemp to delay the EES process for @aglenergy's dirty gas terminal in Westernport. 40 days isn't enough time for locals to assess THOUSANDS of pages of technical data during a lockdown! #NoAGLGas #SaveWesternport

In the 1st lockdown, @DanielAndrewsMP lifted the ban on onshore gas. In this 2nd lockdown, he's given the green light for offshore gas exploration😠 We cannot afford any new gas projects. We need a plan to REDUCE demand & transition homes & businesses AWAY from gas. #springst
