As the anti-Adani convoy winds its way north from Hobart, I’m calling on farming and coal mining families to come together around a new vision for the future of our region.

I’m a second-generation grazier near Jericho, two hours away from Adani’s proposed Carmichael coal mine, but I also understand the fears of the many families in my region who rely economically on mining.
