The Galilee Coal Project case – like all the work we’re doing for clients across the country – is about the kind of world we want to leave for the young people of today and future generations.

Children living in Australia today face a future devastated by the increasing impacts of global warming such as drought, severe cyclones, coral bleaching and deadly bushfires.

The effects of climate change are already upon us, and every new coal mine makes our global climate emergency worse.

This case is the result of thousands of hours of legal and scientific preparation, and builds on EDO’s groundbreaking work in the courts to recognise and mitigate the impacts of Australian fossil fuel projects.

Your donations to our Environmental Defence Fund support legal cases like this, on behalf of brave clients across the country, and ensure we have the best legal minds fighting the climate and extinction crises facing the world and its peoples.

People like you drive the fight for environmental justice, and right now you have the opportunity to double the impact of your donations.

A generous donor has offered to match all gifts to our Environmental Defence Fund so that we can build our legal team.

We’re so grateful for your ongoing support as a Friend of the EDO. The success of this opportunity relies on dedicated people like you. We will only receive matching funds for what we raise.

If you increase your monthly gift today, this increase will be matched dollar-for-dollar throughout 2020.

Make your gift via Paypal using the form on this page, or donate by Credit Card by clicking ‘Donate by Credit Card’.

If you can help us raise the full $250,000 by increasing your monthly gift or making a one-off tax-deductible donation, it will be turned into half a million dollars to drive the essential legal fight to protect the plants, animals, places and people we love, now, and into the future.

How much you give is entirely up you – you know it will have double the impact.

If you are giving to commemorate a special person, place or community, please email us and let us know, so we can properly acknowledge your gift.

Thank you.
