Hi, There is a large protest occurring near Lismore, NSW to stop Coal Seam Gas mining in this area (& other protests in other areas against CSG & Coal Mining). This will involve Fracking, a known environmental concern, as well as Industrialisation of a beautiful Farming community.
Byron Bay Echo is a local independent newspaper, that has published many stories about this blockade. It has been reported that the Bentley Blockade is the largest environmental mass protest in Australia. Some mornings we have had well over 2000 people present. Some musical acts from the Bluesfest in Byron Bay appeared at the protest site to voice their support this Easter Weekend.
