I'm all for the mine. Enable millions of Indians to access reliable power.
Skysurfer, you seem to have so many facts wrong - the coal is for overseas customers, so what good will it do to substitute the coal mine for renewable energy in Australia?
Are you aware there are already two large offshore coal export terminals already operating in the reef, and others within major ports, without any damage to the reef.
No, it is Ok for you in your centrally heated European home to have a first world lifestyle at the expense of the environment - an expense paid for by both previous and current high energy consumption by generations of Europeans - but not Indians in the 21st century.
