Corrupt states/federal politicians who approved this crap mining project along with ADANI executives should be criminally prosecuted for their careless destruction of our national/global environment. They shouldn't get away with such criminality under the disguise of democracy

ADANI: A crap company with crap environmental track records approved by corrupt states and federal politicians....................and for the next several hundred years, the local, national and global community will be negatively impacted by such crap How sad............

As well as totally destroying the water table, the tailing dams are a scary prospect. Wet seasons up there are pretty dramatic and the Great Barrier Reef is not up to it.

Everybody knows Adani is there for the WATER just like Cubbie Station.

This doesn't reflect well on the ad currently being run by the mining industry about this field used to be a mine site, not that I have been very receptive.
