Our beach visit this morning was to take part with hundreds of others in a protest to Save Bream Bay Sand:

McCallum Bros are using the Fast Track process to green light its proposal to extract 8,450,000 m3 of high value marine sand for private profit.

The crowd after assembling for the welcome.

@Miraz good luck stopping the pillaging of a nonrenewable resource. Pure destruction with a whole lot of negative impacts

@rpmik There’s more story, about our Government creating a Fast Track for such things to be approved with pretty much zero consultation. Our government is pro mining, pro oil, pro profit, anti environment. 😒

@the Oh. No, no it’s not. The antivax and conspiracy theorist crowd helped elect a government that’s very unfriendly towards anything that serves the general populace and that is pro profit above all else. Elections in November this year so we hope things will change.
