Onshore gas threat - The jobs fallacy

Tuesday, 25 May 2021 - 9:30am to 10:00am
Ban onshore gas

The onshore conventional gas moratorium - or temporary ban - is due to be lifted on June 30. This means that a potential new front could open up in the fight against fossil fuels with onshore drilling and exploration across Victoria's farmlands.

In this report we hear from South West VIC resident and former dairy farmer, Gillian Blair, and the Australia Institute's Mark Ogge, about how the economic argument for gas just does not stack up - especially when it comes to jobs.
