    “Absolutely horrifying. How can our government be planning to drill for new oil and gas when we know these are the consequences?”
    — Zack Polanski

    • Absolutely horrifying. How can our government be planning to drill for new oil and gas when we know these are the consequences? We have to keep the pressure on this Labour govt to keep all fossil fuels in the ground and secure a safe future for our children and grandchildren.
