Speakers: Australian Greens Senator Rachel Siewert from W.A.
Lyndon Schneiders, National Director of the Wilderness Society

The Kimberley is twice the size of Victoria and includes some of the largest natural areas left on the planet as well as a significant marine environment for many threatened and endangered species.
At James Price Point, 60 km north of Broome, Woodside is planning a $45bn LNG processing plant. As well as its destructive impact on the environment, indigenous culture and tourism, if this project proceeds it will establish a gas future for Australia for next three or more decades.
