Murujuga petroglyphs - putting a "very rosy spin" on the scientific findings
"Federal Environment Minister Murray Watt was advised emissions from Woodside's Karratha Gas Plant may be having an adverse effect on the rock art, before he granted the company an extension to keep operating there for another 40 years."
"A top statistician says he quit a landmark study into whether heavy industry is damaging ancient rock art in Western Australia's north after the government misrepresented his team's key finding. Misstating the results of an expensive scientific investigation is unacceptable and I think that's what's happened."

"The Burrup Peninsula,
in WA’s northwest, known as Murujuga to traditional owners, contains the world’s largest and oldest collection of petroglyphs.""Disrupt Burrup Hub claims Woodside’s operations in the area and its proposed expansion could produce billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide by 2070 and damage the ancient artefacts."

Western Australia: “While I shared my cultural knowledge and authority as a traditional custodian, a dozen cops kicked down my unlocked door, locked up my dogs and went through my house,” says traditional owner Raelene Cooper whose house was raided by WA police while she was in court giving expert evidence in a trial of 3 climate protestors protesting #Fossilfuel expansion on the Burrup peninsula that contains rock art 60,000 years old.
“The police found nothing and charged me with no crime.”
