    What's terrifying is that there are so few comments, there should be 1,000,000 all saying no way is this going to happen.

    Don't blame the Chinese. Blame our greedy politicians that allow it.

    No. We’ve lost too much. Koalas in NSW have had their habit cut up. We are loosing species at a rapid rate. We are loosing the barrier reef. Enough. !!!
    Thank you 60 Minutes and Bob Brown for starting the resistance.

    Ultimately, Australians sold out on themselves. Most Australians probably don’t want this bullshit to go ahead. Hell any rational person in their right mind would reject this abhorrent project. But at least a few people will make themselves mega rich.

    It's travesty to see that gorgeous precious spiritual place. But we can't blame the Chinese. Australian governments have destroyed this place for profit. Why is Australian policy and laws allow for Chinese to own Australian land to destroy. I blame Australian government for this not Chinese.

    What do you mean 'what a shame...'? How typically pathetic. It MUST not happen and we will NOT let it happen. THAT should be your attitude. WHAT can I do about it?

    Labor would doze the lot if they could, fill the Tarkine with ugly windmills and solar panels. People have short memorys its not the LNP its the labor problem!

    Not to worry. We are spending $32million/day on AUKUS and in 30 years our new nuclear powered subs will really make those Chinese reconsider their actions!

    How is this possible the Australian government need to ban mining without permission and they must say no. We need to follow the money I know many politicians are being paid by the Chinese. If we lose this then we need to go to war and take back our country it’s sick and wrong.

    A university student would be lucky to get a pass mark for a report like this. What would the dam damage if it overflowed? How viable is Bob Browns alternative location for the dam? What is the impact of logging vs mining on the area in question (ie is the overall dam impact likely minor compared to ongoing logging)? Probably the answer is "We didn't want to get into any of that, we just wanted to stoke the China hate fires."
