The Australian black coal industry uses enough water for over 5 million people https://www.adelaide.edu.au/global-food/news/list/2020/05/05/arent-we-in-a-drought-the-australian-black-coal-industry-uses-enough-water-for Water is a highly contested resource in this long, oppressive drought, and the coal industry is one of Australia’s biggest water users. Research released today, funded by the Australian Conservation Foundation, has identified how much water coal mining and coal-fired power stations actually use in New South Wales and Queensland.
