With the Tasmanian state election just a week away, GetUp members across Australia are chipping in to run a new TV ad exposing the corruption behind the Gunns pulp mill project.

The ad features pulp mill whistleblower Dr. Warwick Raverty. Here's what Dr. Raverty said about the ad: "Political corruption meant I was forced to resign from my role as chief technical advisor on the pulp mill assessment panel. I felt it was my duty to turn whistleblower to protect the forests of Tasmania and the residents of the Tamar Valley."
