For the Tamar Valley, Bass Strait and all Tasmanians...

STOP THE TAMAR VALLEY PULP MILL!!!  Start time 11.30am.

 
Join Peter Cundall, Richard Flanagan, Kim Booth and spokespeople from anti-pulp mill groups at a peaceful community protest at the Batman Bridge Reserve.

We are gathering to assert our continued opposition to this mill for the following reasons:

1.      Toxic effluent in Bass Strait
2.      Threats to the livelihood and lifestyle of thousands of Tamar Valley residents
3.      Fresh water usage
4.      Possible future use of native forests
5.      The draconian and undemocratic Section 11 of the Pulp Mill Assessment Act.
6.      Lack of an independent, transparent assessment of a “critically non-compliant” mill
7.      Lack of public hearings and community consultation
8.      A complete lack of faith in Gunns.

Time:  11.30 start on Sunday 20th March.
