'God help us': Environmental Defenders Office under fire for receiving overseas donations

View descriptionShare

Yesterday we heard that both the foundation launched by the widow of Apple founder Steve Jobs, and the Albanese Government have inadvertently co-funded long litigation against energy projects across the country.

Millions of dollars in overseas donations to the Environmental Defenders Office are just the tip of the iceberg. 

The EDO came under fire in the Federal Court for concocting Indigenous songlines to block Santos’s $5.7bn LNG pipeline in the Timor Sea. 

The EDO was last week ordered to pay Santos’s entire costs totalling more than $9m.

In reference to the EDO, Federal Opposition environment spokesman Jonno Duniam, told Bill McDonald on 4BC Mornings, "They are going to go out there, they are going to look for cases to fight, they are going to look for projects to stop."
