Originally established in 1983 to fight uranium mining in Kakadu National Park, we continue to work closely with communities across the Northern Territory to stop environmentally destructive projects, hold government and industry to account, and improve environmental regulation and governance.

We're losing what makes Australia special: our unique and beautiful nature.

Experts say Northern quolls may now be locally extinct in Litchfield National Park due to introduced pests such as cats and cane toads along with changed fire regimes and the bulldozing of habitat.

Meanwhile, the NT Government has approved the destruction of almost 40,000 hectares of native habitat in less than two years.

Sign our petition and tell the Albanese government to stop the bulldozers and stand up for the Territory's iconic nature.

Led by Traditional Owners, more than 15,000 people have signed petitions calling for a pause on gas-powered AI data centres in the Northern Territory.

Young Larrakia and Kungarakan Traditional Owner Laniyuk from Protect Larrakia Country has joined forces with 350.org.au, Independent MLA Justine Davis MLA, and LECA in tabling several petitions with the NT government calling for a moratorium on data centres and for no new data centres to be powered by fracked gas.

Another blowout for Middle Arm. Meanwhile, $1.9 billion in federal funding meant for the Territory is sitting idle, tied to a toxic gas and petrochemical project that may never happen.

It's time to call it. Scrap Middle Arm and put the $1.9b into things Territorians actually need.

Movie time, Darwin! Here are two great flicks to put in the calendar:

Come along to Deckchair this Wednesday October 14th for a special screening of Earth's Greatest Enemy. Combining investigative journalism, striking visuals, and stories from impacted communities, this film challenges audiences to rethink the hidden costs of a global military empire and its planetary consequences.

Then, on the 20th, Greenpeace is presenting GASLIT. Academy Award-winning actor and activist Jane Fonda ventures deep into the US oil and gas country, meeting the people who are exposing the fossil fuel industry’s lies, and fighting back.

Tickets available via Deckchair Cinema & Brown's Mart. See you there!

Australia is about to open Pandora's box – but we can still stop this thing.

Market Forces has crunched the numbers. Frack and burn all of the gas the industry reckons is in the Beetaloo Basin, and you would unleash nearly 60 times what Australia emits in a year. SIXTY!!

The best way to fight this climate bomb is by removing the fuse. Right now, the gas industry is trying to get the green light for a giant export pipeline. Sign our petition to demand Murray Watt puts this pipeline - and the fracking it unlocks - under proper federal scrutiny.🔗https://ow.ly/TqUR50ZW9sp

Major community win - the NTEPA have hit pause one of Australia's biggest ever proposed data centres!

The regulator cited a “low level of confidence” in the environmental planning behind Project Ares, Energy North’s proposed 19,150 hectare hyperscale data centre on Murranji Station in the Barkly. And no wonder - this monster would pump at least 4 billion litres of groundwater a year and use more gas daily than the entire Northern Territory.

We welcome the EPA's decision and are calling for the project to be halted until the federal government's national AI standards are legislated.

Frackers want to rip through Australia to build their monster export pipeline - and they’re trying to make you pay for it.

This massive 1,561km pipeline is central to their plans to cover Australia’s Top End in destructive fracking wells. If it’s built, the gas goes overseas. They make billions, and we pay for it - with our water, our health and our climate.

We can stop this. Tell Murray Watt to act - sign the petition:

Big Gas bludgers are at it again. New ATO data shows Santos has paid zero company tax for the 11th year straight.

Meanwhile, their destructive fracking plans in the Beetaloo Basin put our water, health and climate at risk. They get billions, we get the bill.

Enough is enough. Sign our petition and say no to the fracking export pipeline.
