coal seam gas
The long-term impact of CSG production is still hazy, so why the rush to develop?
Two federal government programs improve the science behind coal seam gas exdploration, but neither are a panacea for what the community see as a flawed and biased mining and CSG approval process.
Coal seam gas presents a once in a generation opportunity to Queensland, so why aren’t voters buying into the boom?
Australia is blesssed with an array of energy options, but just where does gas fit into the mix?
Coal seam gas is a very polarising topic and there's good reason for that.
Another public relations campaign from industry is unlikely to dispel the fear surrounding coal seam gas. Resource developers would do better to focus less on waiting for new data and more on showing leadership.
The upcoming Queensland election could be decided by the polarising issue of coal seam gas extraction, so how can the government get the public on side?
Public debate over coal seam gas is raging, but if you are concerned about climate change be very wary about offering complete opposition to it.
At the same time as state governments are making it almost impossible for farmers to install clean power-generating wind turbines, they are opening up farmland to miners. What's wrong with this picture?
Recent fierce opposition to coal-seam gas projects has highlighted changes in stakeholder management. All boards, not only in resources, should take note of the new national mood.
In Victoria, planning laws governing wind farms are more stringent than those that apply to mining. Yet this seems completely contrary to their relative dangers to the environment and local communities.
