How your donation helps
Free community seminars, factsheets, advice and phone lines - just part of the way EDO Qld helps everyday Queenslanders stand up for our environment.
We help clients hold government and industry to account - like exposing Adani's grossly overstated jobs figures for the controversial Carmichael mine in Court.
Committee hearings, drafting submissions and meeting with ministers and government - we get state and federal legislation changed so the environment gets a fair go!
Due to the pressure from the community campaign and Reef court cases, the government was forced to drop plans to dump dredge spoil in Great Barrier Reef waters.
Over the years, we've helped farmers, conservationists and community groups to stop the culling of endangered flying foxes, challenge mega dams and mining activities, and stop the destruction of our Great Barrier Reef.
Since November 2013 we have been delivering free community information seminars known as 'LawJams', with a range of guest speakers, including Ministers, scientists, campaigners, activists, economists and lawyers.
Our 'Community Litigants Handbook', commonly referred to as the "bible for environmental litigants" and our 'Mining and Coal Seam Gas Handbook' are in strong demand. Many rural and urban clients find these handbooks of great benefit.
