Ben Pennings

While Adani, now Bravus, has not appealed a court hearing in which most of its key points against Galilee Blockade activist Ben Pennings were struck out, it has been given another month to resubmit. Margaret Gleeson reports.

Following the Queensland government’s approval of Adani’s conservation plan for the endangered black-throated finch and its groundwater management plan, the company again announced it would start work on its Carmichael coalmine project “within weeks”. But it faces several more obstaces, not least of which is the huge social movement gearing up for the next stage of its campaign.
