“GIVE A DAM” Documentary Screening at Sutherland |

|
|
Southern Sydney Branch |
| Peter V. |
 Raising the Warragamba Dam wall would destroy 65km of wilderness Rivers and inundate 4,700 hectares of the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park. There is a very real threat that raising the Warragamba Dam wall may result in the de-listing of the Greater Blue Mountains from the UNESCO World Heritage List. GIVE A DAM is the grassroots community campaign to stop the destruction of the Blue Mountains national park and the over development in western Sydney from the raising of Warragamba Dam wall. This documentary showcases the spectacular landscapes under threat and the people who are trying to save it.
