   RALLY AGAINST THE DESAL PLANT

  IF THEY BUILD IT, WE ALL WILL PAY!

 

For nearly two years, anti-desal campaigners have organised rallies, meetings, film showings, debates and briefings, outlining the real costs of this project and putting forward the practical alternatives to an energy guzzling desalination plant on the Bass Coast.
 
Despite the spiralling costs of the pilot plant itself, the scarcity of data, criticism of the project from experts inside and outside the government, as well as doubts about financing the project, Mr.Brumby and Mr.Holding push ahead.
 An announcement of the preferred bidder for the project is expected soon.

Enough is enough!

More and more locals and Melbourne residents are waking up to the real cost of desalination, to the environment and our pockets. It will be stopped, if enough of us take action, rally and refuse to pay for a project imposed on us without consultation and against expert advice.


Rally at the Desal Pilot plant site gate
 
  • Go to the end of Lower Powlett Rd Wonthaggi, (opposite Toyota dealership on the Melbourne side of wonthaggi)
  • 10 am on Saturday 9th May
  • Speeches/music/surprise guests from the oceans/BBQ
