CSG Rally, Sunday

Last Sunday we participated in Anti-CSG rally right here in Byron Bay. Thousands of people walked onto Lawson Street and laid down in portrayal of death as result of consuming water laced with poison.
They had protests in several places around Australia.

Coal Seam Gas (CSG) is one of the most important issues we should worry about at the moment.

Unfortunately society in general has learnt to frown on activism; on people who rally and protest. Lazily taking the low-road and assuming that little-old-me cannot make a difference anyway, so why bother. And the ever popular "They wouldn't do it if it wasn't safe."

Really? Who are "they"?



"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
