While there's still time

Please check the Environment Centre NT for updates on action to raise awareness of an immanent threat to The McArthur River.

On the ABC tomorrow night at 7:30 Stateline will be running another story on the McArthur river.

If you prefer to remain aloof, disconnected or blissfully ignorant of environmental issues you might be slightly disturbed by this comment Aldous Huxley once made:

"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored"

What a fact is I'm not entirely sure but If my conscience tells me something is wrong it doesn't cease to be so when I look the other way.


Some more articles on the McArthur River:
