> The coal mine would remove about 40 million tonnes of coal a year for export to South-East Asia, with a forecast life span of 30 years.

> Queensland Land Court president Fleur Kingham said she would not be recommending Waratah Coal's application for a mining lease and environmental approval to be granted.

If you are mining fossil fuels without petrochemical aspirations for manufacturing what are you doing? Just burning a nice resource? Plastic is useful, fossil fuels and mining aren’t the enemy, but just stop being so sloppy “hey guys can we burn this? Or should we make kayaks and cups and such?” -then they burn it. We have let stupid people hurt our mission.
