Pledge to Stop Origin Fracking

Origin Energy and other fracking companies are lining up to frack the NT after wet season, but together, we won’t let them.

People should have the final say about what happens to their land, but Origin Energy has ignored the concerns of Traditional Owners and failed tell communities about the risks involved with fracking.

Communities across the NT have clearly said no the to dangers of fracking, and won’t step down. If we’re going to take on one of Australia’s biggest gas companies and win, we need to build a powerful movement of people willing to have heaps of conversations, take on Origin’s brand, and get through to their executive from every angle.

The Protect Country Alliance (PCA) is working with landholders, traditional owners and communities to stop fracking in the NT. If you do not wish to receive any contact from the Protect Country Alliance you can unsubscribe on any subsequent emails you receive from PCA.

This is a national effort. Want to get involved but don't live in the NT?
