We need your help. We are a local community group taking on the government and a big corporate. The company is determined to profit from the industrialisation of a small island in north-west Tasmania. Threatened species and migratory birds depend on the island to live.

There are right and wrong places for any development. Robbins Island is the wrong location for a large-scale industrial wind farm.

Not only will it cut through the migratory flight path of the critically endangered Orange Bellied Parrot and be built within Tasmanian Wedge-tailed eagle habitat, the wind farm will also need a bridge built from the island to the mainland of Tasmania, compromising a rare disease-free Tasmanian Devil population on the island.

Up to 122 wind turbines will stand up to a gigantic 270 metres high. The height of the turbines is deplorable and will be a blemish on the natural environment of Robbins Island.

We have appealed the local government’s decision to approve the wind farm.

Please help us fund our experts to prepare their reports and pay the necessary legal costs so we can properly run this case and fight as best we can against big business putting profit before protection.
