Over 50 religious leaders have joined forces to urge Adani to abandon the Queensland coal project and turn its goals to renewable energy instead.

Christian ministers, Rabbis, Nuns, ordained Buddhists and Imams from across Australia have written a letter to be hand-delivered to Adani’s Townsville headquarters.

The religious leaders say they support the increase in local jobs that Adani will create but want the investment to increase for renewable energies like solar.
