Policies
Keppel, a region that's economically dependent on coal mining, beef and grain production and the Great Barrier Reef, presents the Greens with unique challenges and opportunities.
We must protect our diminishing forests, farmland and water quality and ween ourselves off the coal economy, create new jobs so that miners and their families can live in healthy environments free in the knowledge that they are not risking their health and lives in an industry that is causing hardship in other areas of the economy like tourism.
The Greens would initiate development of alternative energy including solar power stations in Central Queensland and enact container deposit and packaging legislation, creating jobs and reducing waste.
We oppose the proposed coal port in the Fitzroy River Delta and the marina and development on public land (lot 21) on Great Keppel Island.
Only the Greens will stand up for a fairer, cleaner world independent of vested interests.
