This area is far too precious to allow Santos to exploit for their own gain.
We must think of our future generations and protect the Pilliga.
We must think of our environment, both now and for the future.

We work hard to reduce the impact business is having on our planet and our industry is based on lowering emissions. Australia is one of the most unique, beautiful and fragile environments on Earth.
The last thing we need is to have such a stunning part of Australia raped, tortured and left for dead which is exactly what will happen.
We don't need coal seam gas wells and we will stand to protest this shocking consideration.
Do not allow this or any other area be subject to the terrible mistakes that have been made worldwide with this technique.
Renewable energy is the future not fossil fuels.
Set this country up to thrive in future, not suffer.

The Pilliga region is far too precious to allow CSG. The groundwater is susceptible to pollution - which will be inevitable given the track record.

Obviously, don't destroy our land and water for the sake of some silly bottled farts. Best to run your shire on the rising sun and the blowing breeze, the turn of the tide, and the composting rubbish... not to mention the rush of the river and the heat under the skirt of the earth. If you need jobs best to be less fatalistic about the duration of our civilization and plan on an actual industry that produces something for people and that leaves your community better off.

The Pilliga is a haven for threatened wildlife and this will only risk they're existence further.

Please don't destroy Pilliga. Please look after our country. The environment is precious to our Australian identity and way of life.

I am opposed to the expansion of CSG mining in the Pilliga. The Pilliga is of great significance from many perspectives, hydrological, ecological and cultural, and these values will be damaged by the expansion of Santos' CSG mining.
The Pilliga is an important recharge area for the Great Artesian Basin and impacts that cannot be mitigated will follow from any deep drilling of wells in this strata. This will have vast impacts across the GAB and is one very good reason that approval should not be granted for this proposal.

Its appalling to see the government continually giving up our natural reserves and resources to turn a coin. We will all suffer.

I am against allowing Santos to drill 850 coal seam gas wells right through the heart of the Pilliga forest and through the Great Artesian Basin.

Say NO to CSG in the Pilliga!

It's been proven CSG is a bad idea. When will our government listen. Australia doesn't want it.
