    Taseko should not be granted approval to build a mine around Fish Lake for three main reasons. Firstly, Taseko is a mining group that wants to start their development around Fish Lake but environmentalists and indigenous group, Tsilhoqot’in, claim that Taseko will cause irreparable damage to the water supply. I argue that Fish Lake is a common resource which means that the land has to be protected to ensure consumers does not over use it. Second, Fish Lake is a sacred land for the indigenous group Tsilhoqot’in. Lastly, Taseko would be contributing to the inequality that Aboriginal people have to deal with when the government wants to build on their territory.…

    The abolishment of the miners licence was one of the many reasons for the beginning of the Eureka Stockade. The miners licence brought grief, pain and hardship for the miners as many were unable to pay for a licence at such quick demand, and therefore almost lost their right to dig for gold and provide for any family either with them or overseas at home. The miners licence was a way for the government to tax the miners for digging on the land, if they did not find any gold and the licence couldn’t be paid for the licence would have to be paid in other ways such as coarse enduring labour. This was a continuing struggle for the miners as they knew there were other ways to be treated than with agony and cruelty. The fight for the abolishment of…

    Since the beginning of the coal mining industries in the 1800s, thousands of mines have been created, extracting the precious mineral, and then dumped, empty and hollow. Once industries finished with a certain area, it would be dropped and they would move on, drilling in another location. The act of reclaiming these mines did not come to light until 1977 when the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act was passed by Congress after they saw the disruption in the environment. This act put a strain on the profits of many coal mining industries, such as Peabody Energy and Alpha Natural Resources. Now, Peabody Energy and Alpha Natural Resources wrongly reclaim their retired mines as a way to protect their profits, doing the bare minimum of reclamation.…

    It is no secret that Australia’s major cities – Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide – are rapidly growing both in population and in urban development. While Sydney and Melbourne put Brisbane in third place for Australia’s largest concentrated population, Brisbane encompasses the most crowded local government area in the country as well as the biggest population growth rate. Such unforeseen growth projects a doubling in overall population just within the next three decades; even if there is to be increased urban planning and settlement redistribution, all of these cities will surpass their carrying capacities by the mid-21st century. Unfortunately, the desperate need for government action and planning in this regard remains unanswered.…
