Scott Reef lies 270 kilometres off the coast of Western Australia.
It’s remote. Ancient. Pristine. And in danger.
Gas giant Woodside wants to drill more than 50 gas wells right next to Scott Reef – risking the stability of its fragile seabed and endangering the marine life that depends on it.
Now that Woodside's North West Shelf gas extension may get the green light to keep operating until 2070, Woodside is one step closer to drilling for gas near this precious marine oasis.
Now more than ever, we must keep up the fight to protect Scott Reef. Will you join us with a tax-deductible gift before 30 June?
Scott Reef is more than 15 million years old. In its clear, tropical waters, endangered pygmy blue whales rest and feed. Vulnerable green sea turtles rely on its shores to lay their eggs. Hundreds of species thrive here – some that are found nowhere else on Earth.
Allowing Scott Reef to be industrialised into a gas field could be a death sentence for so much precious marine wildlife.
We can’t risk the reef and let Woodside win. Please donate now to help stop Woodside’s drilling plans from becoming a devastating reality.
The months ahead are critical in our fight to protect Scott Reef and the marine life that depends on it. Here’s how your tax-deductible gift can help:
- You can help power the work of our expert campaigners, making sure our teams of experts are on Woodside's case.
- You can help fund media campaigns that expose the truth about Woodside’s dangerous narrative.
- You can help rally nature lovers from around Australia and create public pressure to stop Woodside’s possible destruction of Scott Reef.
We can’t let Woodside get away with their polluting new projects that could destroy nature every step of the way and derail our vibrant, renewable power future.
You can help us pressure the government at every level to stop Woodside’s drilling before it’s too late.
Scott Reef has survived for millennia. Let’s make sure it stands for generations to come.
