Darwin knows what care looks like.  We know how to feed families and whole communities with a line and a hook. We know how to stand together and make sure no one is left behind.  That spirit is under threat. Greedy fossil fuel corporations want to dredge our harbour, pollute our seas, and poison our water — all to make a quick buck. The proposed expansion of the Middle Arm gas hub risks destroying the very things that make Darwin home.  It doesn’t have to be this way. The Federal Labor Government has a responsibility to the people of Darwin and to Larrakia Country. Instead of throwing $1.9 billion of public money into a polluting gas hub, the government must fund what truly sustains us — a safe climate and thriving communities. That money could protect what we love: clean seas, a living harbour, restored creeks, cooling forests, and families with secure futures. Darwin life is unique, vibrant, and abundant. We know how to make a lot with a little. We know how to care for each other and for Country. Tell the Federal Labor Government to throw a line to our future — protect Darwin Harbour from pollution and greed, and invest in a First Nations‑led future that cares for people and Country.

Our vision is for a future where children inherit a healthy planet, where the wealth generated from these lands builds thriving communities, not billionaire's bank accounts, and we honour our shared responsibility to protect Country and climate.  Right now, while millions of people are suffering from the US and Israel’s war in West Asia, Australia’s big gas companies are making huge profits from the energy crisis, exploiting this awful situation for their own gain.  We know that Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is considering options for putting a new levy on gas exports. A simple 25% tax would raise billions that could actually serve communities and protect our climate, instead of lining the pockets of fossil fuel giants. This isn't just tax reform—it's justice. Sign the petition today asking Treasurer Jim Chalmers to make gas companies pay their fair share of tax.
