The American Fracking Machines About To Change The Northern Territory GetUp! Australia 2023-03-28 | The US market is dipping, and they're eager to find somewhere else to make money off their destruction. Tamboran Resources is currently shipping fracking machinery to Australia that can drill 4km in length, in several directions at once. Four kilometres is 11 titanic ships, 25 football fields or 185 semi-trailer trucks.Tamboran are working with US-based oil and gas provider, Helmerich & Payne (H&P), who are major investors in Tamboran. H&P make and contract out these rigs across the US. Just like Tamboran, H&P have a murky and worrying history, and have devastated United States communities for years.The sheer scale of Tamboran's fracking rig means it needs two to four times as much water and toxic chemicals than anything else currently approved in Australia. Digging into some of Tamboran's annual reports, we know they plan to work with H&P to send up to five of these monsters here in the months and years to come. We have to act now to stop it. Will you sign the petition demanding state and federal politicans do everything in their power to stop this disastrous plan?

The Enormous US Fracking Machine Coming To Australia GetUp!

To give decision makers the mandate they need to block this terrifying piece of machinery from being used in the Northern Territory, we need hundreds of thousands of signatures – and fast.Sign the petition here: https://www.getup.org.au/stop-the-mega-fracker?t=53t1tbL3Support GetUp!

Here's why we need to be concerned.Unemployment advocates are calling for 90-day amnesty from payment cut-offs to prevent a huge spike in payment cut-offs, and the new Employment Services Minister to make it happen.
