WE HAVE TRIED WITHOUT SUCCESS TO GET SOME REACTION FROM A LOT OF AUSTRALIAN AND OVERSEAS ORGANISATIONS. CAN YOU HELP OR AT LEAST REPLY AS NO ONE SEEMS TO BE INTERESTED IN THE FOLLOWING: 45,000,000 LITRE OF WATER A DAY ARE BEING TAKEN OUT OF THE AUSTRALIAN ARTESAN BASIN JUST FOR THE URANIUM MINE AT ROXBY DOWNS NEAR LAKE EYRE. THIS WATER HAS TAKEN THOUSANDS OF YEARS TO GET THERE AND CANNOT BE REPLACED FOR ANOTHER THOUSAND OR SO YEARS. THE BEAUTIFUL AUSTRALIAN DESERT IS BEING SERIOUSLY AFFECTED BY THIS HUGE LOSS. THIS AMOUNT OF WATER IS MORE THAN THE DAILY REQUIREMENT OF A CITY SUCH AS ADELAIDE. IF YOU READ ABOUT THE LEGAL PROCEDINGS OF THE LOCAL TRIBAL ELDER, KEVIN BUSCOTT, SUPPORT HIM BEFORE THE DESERT IS DESTROYED FURTHER. KEVIN IS CURRENTLY IN COURT IN ADELAIDE OVER THIS ISSUE. WHAT A WASTE OF THE MOST VALUABLE RESOURCE AUSTRALIA AND THE WORLD HAS. IN ADDITION WE UNDERSTAND THAT SOME OF THE WATER WHICH IS FREE OF CHARGE IS ALSO BEING SOLD TO THE LOCAL TOWN FOR $6 PER 45 GALLON DRUM BY THE MINE ?? ANY REPLY AT LEAST WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
THE CARING PEOPLE WHO ARE ON SITE AND IN TUNE WITH WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW ARE MARC AND IZZY (12 VOLT UNITED) WHO MAY BE ON AN ABC DOCUMENTARY ABOUT TASMANIA IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. YOU CAN CONTACT THEM BY EMAIL ON: mailto:monkeymarc@hotmail.com or fax: (02) 9456 5383
