Proposals for these 19 projects are sitting on the desk of Tanya Plibersek, minister for Water and the environment.The dramatic question is HOW can she approve a new gas or coal project if she digs into this vault of living wonders and sees  the climate disruptions caused by more coal and gas?  A small group called The Environment Council of  Central Queensland has started a legal intervention under a rarely used section of the National Environment laws, to ask Tanya Plibersek to reconsider the 19 proposals. Through their lawyers at Environmental Justice Australia they have made it easy for the minister to access scientific research, much of it paid for by the Government. Environmental Justice Australia (envirojustice.org.au)Environment Council of Central Queensland at Queensland Conservation CouncilJakelin Troy | ARC Centre of Excellence for the History of Emotions
