Black Hole Movie and Climate Discussion - \u014ctautahi

We're lucky to be able to add a free screening of the inspiring Black Hole movie, to our normal welcome talk.
Black Hole is the story of the fight to save the Leard State Forest from one of the most controversial coal mining projects in Australia – Whitehaven’s Maules Creek Coal Mine. Set against the backdrop of the mining industry’s ever-increasing thirst for fossil fuels, Black Hole is an intense and riveting exposé of the tensions between large corporations, the Australian government and the community. Examine the future of coal, corporate responsibility and the rights governments afford to people vs polluters.
This is particularly relevant today in Aotearoa as our govt ramps up mining and climate breakdown through the fast track process. Come along, enjoy the movie, discuss, and meet some of our local members who have been at the coal face fighting coal mining in Aotearoa.
Vegan kai provided.
