Dear Graeme,

As the Chief Exec­u­tive Offi­cer of Hazel­wood pow­er sta­tion, you are respon­si­ble for the dirt­i­est pow­er sta­tion in Aus­tralia and the most pol­lut­ing in the Indus­tri­alised World.
You are caus­ing irre­versible envi­ron­men­tal destruc­tion which will go on to harm not only those liv­ing on the plan­et today, but your children’s chil­dren too.

We hold you per­son­al­ly account­able for this assault against our Earth. We do not take light­ly to the per­pet­u­al destruc­tion of our land-base for the self­ish and short-term objec­tive of fat­ten­ing your bank account.

The irre­place­able and pre­cious eco-sys­tems of this Earth are worth much more than your man­i­cured lawn, expen­sive car and opu­lent sub­ur­ban house. Your prop­er­ty will not remain safe so long as Hazel­wood con­tin­ues to pol­lute at such an inex­cus­able lev­el, swal­low mil­lions of litres of fresh water every hour and cough out hydrochlo­ric and nitro­gen acids in return.

This Earth does not exist for the prof­its of avari­cious CEOs like you,

The Earth Lib­er­a­tion Front.
