Join the People's Occupation of the World's Biggest Coal Port

With plans afoot to double coal exports, Newcastle Port is at the coalface of global ecological disaster.

Any expansion of the world's already largest coal port would be directly opposite to the changes we must make to achieve a positive future for the planet, the people of the world, and the people of NSW.

On Saturday 10th February at 1pm Newcastle Harbour will see a peaceful vigil and press conference at Horseshoe Beach, accompanying a colourful floating community demonstration against NSW coal expansion.

Let's send a clear message to the parties campaigning for the NSW election in March:

No New Coal Loaders, No new Coal Mines and A Just Transition to a Sustainable Future.

So, bring down your placards, banners, rubber duckies, kayaks, canoes, yachts, surfboards, rafts, floating banners, pontoons, peddle boats, row boats, water bikes, sail boats and we'll show we're united for a sustainable future.
