Gina Rinehart goes to Rio! Protest against Australia pushing 'sustainable mining' at Rio+20.
<p>Mining magnates Gina Rinehart and Clive Palmer have their fingerprints all over the Australian government submission to the second UN Rio Earth Summit. The meeting of world leaders from June 20-22 in Brazil is supposed to be 'a chance to move away from business-as-usual' and create sustainable solutions to the world's most serious environmental problems. But you’ll never guess what the government’s answer to the environmental problems caused by mining is: why, more mining of course! 12 noon. State Library, cnr La Trobe & Swanston Sts, City. Organised by Friends of the Earth.</p>
