Save Scott Reef from Woodside's Dirty Gas
Scott Reef is a fragile, living treasure that is home to endangered green turtles, elusive pygmy blue whales and rare sharks. This coral sanctuary is under threat from Woodside’s plan to drill for gas.
Environment Minister Murray Watt has the power to stop the project, Save Scott Reef and create a long lasting legacy for him and this labor government.
Join us in making Scott Reef a national priority now!
Sign up to the Week of Action!
Together we need to make the campaign to Save Scott Reef from Woodside's gas project a national issue! To do this we need the Government to be hearing about the issue from their constituents and for as many MPs and Senators to know and understand what’s at risk!
Sign up to take part in our Week of Action, where you’ll join a group led by an alliance member to visit your local MP’s office and speak with them about passing on the message to parliament about importance of protecting Scott Reef.
We will provide all the materials you need. Check bellow for the your electorate and the date and time we are all meeting from Monday 29th September - Sunday 5th October.

5 reasons to reject Woodside's disastrous plans
- Scott Reef is one of Australia’s most amazing - and untouched - underwater wonders. It’s home to hundreds of species, including fish, sea snakes, sharks, rays and sawfish. It’s also a vital habitat for protected species, including endangered pygmy blue whales and green turtles.
- Woodside wants to drill up to 57 gas wells around Scott Reef. Some of the wells would be just under 3km from the reef itself. It wants to pump the gas to shore through a 900km long pipeline, running through two marine parks and straight past the Rowley Shoals, another of WA’s spectacular coral reefs.
- Woodside's safety record has been described by unions as 'diabolical'. If something went wrong, a well blowout could devastate Scott Reef - and the pollution could spread for hundreds of kilometre
- Sandy Islet is a small sandy island and nesting habitat for endangered green turtles right in the middle of Scott Reef. If gas is extracted from underneath, plans show the island could sink, leaving these endangered and genetically isolated turtles without hope.
- The gas Woodside wants to exploit is a dangerous fossil fuel that would be a climate bomb, adding 1.6 billion tonnes of emissions to the atmosphere - causing more deadly storms, floods, bushfires and heatwaves.

It’s not too late to save Scott Reef - but we have to act now!
Make sure the Federal Environment Minister, Murray Watt, the WA State Government and your local MPs know that you’re deeply opposed to Woodside’s disastrous plans.
Send an Email to your MP
What's at risk?
270km off the northern coast of WA lies Scott Reef - Australia’s largest stand alone coral reef atoll.
Scott Reef is teeming with life. Whale sharks migrate past on their way to Ningaloo. It’s a feeding ground for endangered pygmy blue whales. Green sea turtles travel thousands of miles to lay their eggs on the sand here.
What's the threat?
Fossil fuel giant Woodside wants to drill for gas at Scott Reef. It’s planning to surround Scott Reef with up to 50 gas wells - the closest being just 2km from the reef's edge.
Not only will this be a disaster for local wildlife, but Woodside's proposed Burrup Hub will be a climate bomb - belching out 6.1 billion tonnes of emissions.
What can you do?
The future of Scott Reef is in the hands of the new Environment Minister, Murray Watt. He will decide this year whether Australia’s most dangerous project goes ahead.
You can make sure Watt and the WA State Government knows West Australians are deeply opposed to Woodside's plans. Use our simple tool to email the WA and Federal Ministers and your local MP calling for them to reject Woodside's plans.
Please note, the most persuasive emails are personalised and make an emotional connection. Include an introductory paragraph that explains who you are, and why it is so important to you that the Minister takes action.
Australia is one of the sunniest, windiest places in the world. It could be a world leader on clean energy - if only Woodside wasn’t standing in the way.
Email your local MP and tell them you want a clean energy future, not Woodside’s dirty gas. State and Federal MPs have the power to stop Woodside - but they won’t act unless we let them know how we feel.
