Adani coal company pulls GetUp video off YouTube

The video (I posted it here somewhere) that GetUp made recently showing up the terrible environmental record of Adani, has been pulled from YouTube. Only days after Adani announced it was seeking investors for Abbott Point - the worlds biggest coal terminal smack in the middle of the Great Barrier Reef if it goes ahead.

It looks like someone with direct business relationship with Adani set up a fake website, uploaded our video, and launched a copyright action claiming our video as their own. That means the video has been taken down, just days after Adani announced it was looking for banks to fund their project. more

 

GetUp however has a new plan. They want to raise money to directly target investors online, so that someone searching Adani will have the opportunity to see this video.

If enough GetUp members chip in now, we can launch a sophisticated online search engine program and integrated ad buy. We'll make sure that every investor, banker or politician who researches Adani sees the video and learns that this company should not be trusted to operate on our Great Barrier Reef.
