Here’s great example of anti-gas activists caught bending the truth.

In this case, Arizona’s iconic Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River is being used in an online petition calling for a moratorium on natural gas development in Australia’s Kimberley.

The petition’s authors are either profoundly confused or very willing to mislead.

People have clicked their support, presumably in the belief that the landscape shown above is under threat. It’s not. And neither is the Kimberley according to WA’s Environmental Protection Authority.

The truth is safe, clean, reliable natural gas has the potential to bring investment and jobs to a region that is desperate for economic opportunities.

Send your own message to the WA Environment Minister.

Dear Minister,

I support the Western Australian Government’s decision to allow companies to safely and responsibly explore the onshore gas potential of regional Western Australia. Don’t let the misleading work of anti-development activists deny this region access to the jobs and opportunities natural gas is providing communities elsewhere in Australia.
