In this second instalment of From Us, For Us: Climate Conversations’ two-part deep dive into fracking in the Northern Territory’s Beetaloo Basin, Ivy Sheng from the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (AYCC) shifts the focus from national policy to the fight on the ground. Hannah Ekin from Frack Free NT shares firsthand insights on how fracking threatens land, water, and First Nations communities, and what grassroots resistance looks like in real time. Then, climate and energy policy analyst Thomas Houlie unpacks the numbers - how fracking in Beetaloo fits into Australia’s emissions trajectory, and what it means for our climate commitments. As fossil fuel expansion continues, the question remains: whose voices will shape the future of Australia’s energy landscape?
