November 7 2009 – Die-in at NSW Parliament House
Come along to the front steps of the NSW Parliament House at 10am dressed as a whale, dolphin, turtle or other animal threatened by shark nets. We’ll congregate and then stage a mass death. Bring your own blood sachets. It’ll be sure to gain some media attention!
November 28 2009 –Talk by Ian Cohen MP at Maroubra Junction Community Centre
NSW Greens MP Ian Cohen joins us to discuss the issues surrounding the use of shark nets, from the angle of an environmentalist and a keen surfer. He’ll participate in an open forum at the conclusion of his speech to allow for community involvement. We’d love to see you at the centre at 7pm for a 7:30pm start.

About us
- No Nets
- No Nets is a group that campaigns for the removal of shark nets from NSW beaches.
Shark nets are harmful to all marine life, from endangered grey nurse sharks to migrating humpback whales. Yet they do little to prevent shark attacks on our beaches. No Nets believes that shark nets need to be removed from NSW beaches and replaced with less destructive alternative technologies that will benefit both beach-goers and all marine life.
