SUMMARY
Extract from EDO website: The Australian Religious Response to Climate Change (ARRCC) has through its lawyers, the Environmental Defenders Office (EDO), complained to the advertising regulator that many statements on Bravus Australia’s website are potentially false or misleading. Bravus Australia is the trading name of Adani Australia Pty Ltd, part of the Adani Group and owner of the Carmichael coal mine in Central Queensland. The company expects production from that mine will reach 30Mt in the next few years. ARRCC believes that Bravus Australia is in breach of advertising standards because the company falsely claims: (a) It is leading the transition to clean energy and net zero; (b) It is exclusively or predominantly a solar energy company; and (c) It operates sustainably, adhering to environmental best practice.
