Tomorrow in Perth (20 October) at 5:30pm we’re rallying to keep the Kimberley frack-free. Will you be there? 🙌

Our friends at Environs Kimberley are bringing people together from across the state at Parliament House to send a clear message to the Premier: KEEP THE KIMBERLEY FRACK-FREE.

The WA government is about to make a decision on the future of fracking in the Kimberley. They need to hear from people across the state—not just the Kimberley—that we want a frack-free Kimberley.

So please join John Butler at Parliament House tomorrow!

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Bring your friends & family
🪧 Bring a sign.
🔊Bring your voice.

Scott Reef, off the Kimberley Coast of WA, is one of the wildest places left in Australian waters. Home to pygmy blue whales on their migration, a genetically unique population of green turtles that nest nowhere else on Earth, and over 1,500 other marine species.

🚨 Woodside’s Browse gas project threatens this underwater marvel—proposing to drill for gas just 3km from the Reef.

But that’s not all. Thousands of kilometers away, the Great Barrier Reef faces an extra 29.35 million dead coral colonies during every future bleaching event due to the climate pollution caused by the Browse project, which is estimated to emit a staggering 1.6 billion tonnes of emissions over the lifetime of the project.

The government has agreed to accept public submissions on whether it should consider the impacts of climate pollution from the Woodside gas project on the Great Barrier Reef.

We say it’s a no brainer. The government must take this significant impact on both iconic reefs into consideration.

Photographer Matt Deakin spent the summer observing and photographing the forest red-tailed black cockatoos of Kalamunda, WA.

Like the name suggests, these black cockatoos are forest dwellers, and need trees to survive. Whether it is tree hollows for breeding or seeds to snack on from jarrah, marri and sheoaks.

It was once fairly common to hear the calls of the karrak (Noongar language), but now it is becoming more and more unusual as their forest homes are destroyed. Birds are increasingly seen in urban areas as competition for food and shelter increases.

Thank you to .miles.away for sharing these stunning photographs of these beautiful birds 💚 If you’d like to be featured next, don’t forget to tag your images with

A lot has unfolded in recent months in the campaign to protect WA’s Northern Jarrah Forest from destructive bauxite mining.

As Alcoa continues to face scrutiny for its mining operations, something bigger is building—people coming together to speak up for this irreplaceable forest and the species that depend on it. ✊🌳

From challenging greenwashing claims to tens of thousands of submissions, this people-powered movement is growing, and we’re having an impact.

In this update, WA Campaigns Manager Alyx Douglas shares where things stand and what’s at stake.
