New analysis from investigative media outlet has confirmed that a functioning domestic gas reservation policy would easily meet the state’s energy needs without drilling the Browse gas project at Scott Reef.

More than 90% of WA's gas is exported overseas, mostly royalty-free.

If Premier Roger Cook simply enforced his own domestic gas reservation policy, it would supply more gas to the market than Woodside’s proposed Browse gas export project.

Roger Cook has a choice to make; does he force big gas exporters to fulfil their existing obligations to Western Australians, or does he wreck WA nature so multinational companies like Woodside can make more profits?

Woodside commissioned a report proving WA is falling behind on climate — then used it to justify building more fossil fuels 🤯

That's a cop-out — not a plan.

Woodside's own research points to the real solution: a rapid renewable transition.

Transitioning away from fossil gas would deliver cheaper and more secure energy for Western Australians.

Instead, Woodside wants to push ahead with Browse — a massive new gas export project that would lock in decades more emissions.

WA is already the only state with rising emissions and no legislated reduction targets. The last thing we need is Woodside learning all the wrong lessons from its own report.

BIG GAS IS TAKING THE P**S

At the pub in Freo, we got together with our mates from the for a ripper yarn about how the gas industry is taking advantage of Australians and destroying the places we love.

Now, its time for and to introduce a 25% tax on gas exports. Because we've been rorted for way too long.

Call your MP and tell them to tax the gas at last.

Australians have been ripped off by gas corporations for decades.

The international gas lobby has worked hard to make sure Australian laws stay written in their favour — at the cost of our communities and our climate.

This budget, Albo has the chance to change that. A 25% tax on gas exports is the bare minimum — and a clear majority of Australians across the political spectrum agree.

Thanks to and InfluenceMap for the research used in this video.

Volunteers from Conservation Council of WA (CCWA) have been doorknocking in Maylands to find out what the community really thinks about the gas industry — and the results are clear: 74% of residents oppose Woodside's proposed Browse gas project at Scott Reef.

Only 1 in 5 think gas multinationals are paying their fair share. Meanwhile, families are feeling the squeeze.

Big Gas has got away with ripping us off and destroying our environment for too long — but the tide is turning.

Companies like Woodside are set to pocket windfall profits as the devastating war in Iran sends gas prices soaring — while the rest of us suffer climate disasters and cost-of-living pressures driven by fossil fuels.

Woodside is seeking approval to drill 57 gas wells at the pristine, diverse Scott Reef off the WA coast — a plan that would be devastating for endangered species and migrating whales.

Woodside has bought its way into WA schools, museums and sports clubs, to distract us from the fact that it is warming the planet, slowing down the renewable energy transition and ripping us off.

Had enough? You’re not alone.

Join the rest of us — protest Woodside’s reckless plans for gas expansion at the company’s 2026 Annual General Meeting on Thursday, April 23.

We’ll be there to remind the company, its investors, the media and decision-makers that time’s up on dangerous, expensive fossil gas, and that Scott Reef must be protected for future generations.

This will be WA's biggest and loudest anti-Woodside protest of 2026 — and the more of us there, the stronger the message.

BIG GAS IS TAKING THE P**S

Last night, a sold-out crowd gathered at H&C Urban Winery in Fremantle for a conversation on how the gas industry harms Australia's economy and environment.

Australia Institute co-CEOs Richard Denniss and Leanne Minshull joined CCWA Campaigner Greta Carroll, beer maker Rhys Lopez and artist Lucy Peach to discuss how Big Gas is holding us back, and what we can do about it.

"Australia is the third largest exporter of fossil fuels in the world," said Richard Denniss.

"Do you know how the Saudis feel when the price of oil goes up? Rich. But in Australia, what do we call it when the price of gas and coal and oil go up? Cost-of living crisis.

"You can't support expansion of gas and coal in Australia in 2026 and say you believe in the climate science. That's just bu****it and needs to be called for it."

Call your Federal MP today to demand a 25% tax on gas exports to pay for cost-of-living relief and the renewable transition.
