The Sunrise Project was conceived as a response to two critical threats. Firstly the reality of global warming and the imperative to cut greenhouse pollution as soon as humanly possible. Secondly, the growing sense that decision-makers in Australia are increasingly prioritising short-term vested interests ahead of the longer-term community interest. limate change not only threatens the environment, left In less than two years we’ve established an effective and unchecked it poses an existential threat to humanity itself. influential new organisation that is playing a vital role in CAs the International Panel on Climate Change released its protecting our natural heritage and in the struggle for a stark warning and call to action in March 2014 I was struck by a safe climate.

To make things worse, while our elected representatives delay taking action to cut emissions, they are allowing the destruction of many of the most important assets needed for our community to be resilient in a changing climate – clean water, good farmland and healthy ecosystems. But the world is changing. And there are two unstoppable forces of history on our side. ust as nobody uses typewriters anymore, our children will The Sunrise Project has taken a “collective impact” approach not rely on burning coal to boil water for their electricity – to supporting these genuinely disparate grassroots social Jthey’ll just plug directly into the sun via panels on their roof movements, working with them to build common ground like over three million Australians are already doing.

Signature of Supervisor Date i ABSTRACT Over the past 15 years, significant sectors of the mining industry have undertaken the Global Mining Initiative. This was followed by an extensive program called the Mining, Minerals and Sustainable Development Project. These self regulatory mechanisms require 'beyond compliance' environmental behaviour, whether companies are operating in the developed or the developing world. Reviewing case studies of gold mines operated by the 'top tier' transnational mining companies in Queensland, Papua New Guinea and Tanzania, this thesis addresses whether these and other self regulatory mechanisms are more important than formal legislation in motivating compliance with environmental laws for these mining companies. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to sincerely thank and acknowledge the many hours spent by my Principal Supervisor, Associate Professor Geoff Cockfield in developing this thesis. Dr Cockfield‘s erudite comments and suggestions were of immense value.

  • The Australian Movement Against Uranium Mining: Its Rationale and Evolution
    THE AUSTRALIAN MOVEMENT AGAINST URANIUM MINING: ITS RATIONALE AND EVOLUTION Marty Branagan Lecturer in Peace Studies University of New England, Australia This paper begins with a brief historical overview of the Australian movement against urani- um mining, before focussing on two major campaigns: Roxby and Jabiluka. It describes the reasons the activists gave at the time for their blockades of the Roxby Downs uranium mine in South Australia in 1983 and 1984. These reasons – such as perceptions that the industry is unsafe - have changed little over time and were the basis for the campaign against the pro- posed Jabiluka mine in the Northern Territory in 1998. They continue to be cited by environmental groups and Aboriginal Traditional Owners to this day as new situations arise, such as the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident. The paper then describes how the movement evolved between the Roxby and Jabiluka block- ades, with changes to the movement’s philosophy, strategy, tactics and internal dynamics. This analysis includes a comparison between two anti-nuclear bike rides, one a year after the 1984 Roxby blockade and involving some of the same activists, and another at the time of the Jabiluka blockade. This author was present at all these events, and provides an emic (in- sider) perspective within a longitudinal participant-observation methodology. Although this perspective obviously has a subjective element, the paper fills a gap in that there is little written history of these blockades (particularly Roxby) and more generally of Australian re- sistance to uranium mining, let alone the aspects of nonviolence and movement evolution.

The Hunter Valley, one of Australia’s historic food, wine and grain breadbaskets, is now home to over 50 open cut and underground black coal mines and is one of the world’s major coalmining and exporting regions. It is Australia’s largest black coal electricity generating region where six coal-fired power stations generate 40% of Australia’s electricity supply.

  • Thesis Title
    THESIS TITLE ‘A Critical Analysis of Decision-making Protocols used in Approving a Commercial Mining License for the Beverley Uranium Mine in Adnyamathanha Country: Toward Effective Indigenous Participation in Caring for Cultural Resources’ Department of Geographical and Environmental Studies The University of Adelaide Student Name: Jillian Kay Marsh Submission Date: 14 May 2010 A Critical Analysis of the Decision-making Protocols used in Approving a Commercial Mining License for the Beverley Uranium Mine in Adnyamathanha Country: Toward Effective Indigenous Participation in Caring for Cultural Resources Abstract An exploratory approach via a single case study is used in this thesis to better understand two embedded units of analysis: the first unit of analysis explores Adnyamathanha resources management and decision-making protocols, and the second unit of analysis explores the Environmental Impact Assessment for Beverley Uranium Mine. ‘Adnyamathanha’ literally translates into English as ‘name for the people of the rock country’ and is associated with several sub-groups of Indigenous peoples from the northern Flinders Ranges region of South Australia. These sub-groups include Kuyani and Adnya-Kuyani, Biladapa, Warlpi, and Yadliawada and all are inextricably linked through complex relationships between people, land, kinship and language. This thesis involves a critical examination of the various levels of participation by Adnyamathanha in the decision-making processes surrounding the commercial licensing at Beverley Mine. It clarifies issues and raises new questions about the interface between players involved in land use through a qualitative and participatory research methodology and set of methods used to explore the topic. Theoretical understandings are linked to Indigenous heritage and resources management to highlight the cultural values of past, present and future relationships between Indigenous peoples and customary lands.

In addition, minimal research has attended in detail to the complexity of environmental advocacy, or explored measures to through which to enhance advocates’ prospects of success. The environment movement itself has given scarce attention to promoting the skills, abilities and predispositions that contribute to effective advocacy. Indeed, most environmental non-government organisations (ENGOs) in Australia appear to believe that scientific or expert knowledge will be sufficient to influence environmental decision-makers and consequently provide minimal training or education to enhance advocacy. This thesis is a response to these problems. It seeks to develop an understanding of, and model for, activist education and training in the Australian environment movement. The two main bodies of literature that inform the study are social movement and i adult education literature.
