DESCRIPTION:We are providing 50 x double sit-on-top kayaks for anyone to use on the 
 day. That means 100 people who can’t BYO vessel can get out on the water! 
 These kayaks are very stable and easy to use and come with a life-jacket. 
 You are also welcome to bring your own kayak, surfboard, yacht, or other 
 vessel.\n\nWe will be providing a legal briefing and a safety/training day 
 the weekend before the blockade (5th Dec)\n\nNON-violent action 
 participants ONLY. \n\nWe make 3 demands:\n1. TELL THE TRUTH – Declare a 
 Climate and Ecological Emergency – working with institutions to 
 communicate the urgency for change.\nThe Australian public has been 
 concertedly deceived by its own government and media by the power of the 
 Coal Lobby. Evidence of disinformation campaigns date back 30 years. We 
 know that the biggest coal companies, involving some of the wealthiest and 
 most well connected people in Australia have been using established 
 relationships within Industry groups, Lobbying and sections of the media, 
 to influence decisions at the highest level of government.\n\n2. ACT NOW 
 – Zero Emissions and halt bio-diversity loss by 2025.\nFor decades the 
 science has warned that fossil fuels have to end and there is still no plan 
 to support coal industry workers through the coming transition. We demand a 
 transition plan to guide a managed decline of the Hunter Valley coal 
 industry, and to embrace the clean energy of the future, such as solar, 
 wind, waves and battery storage. The plan must be urgent and fair for all 
 peoples. New Fossil Fuel and Nuclear projects must be stopped and subsidies 
 to these industries must be ended.\n\n3. GO BEYOND POLITICS – Create 
 binding Peoples Assemblies, advised by scientists and First Nations people, 
 on Climate and ecological justice.\nPolitics is broken, between lobbyists 
 and carer politicians we can not trust our political system with an 
 emergency transition. Peoples assemblies have been used all around the 
 world with resounding success.\n\n\n
