Let this sink in. This financial year, taxpayers will hand over nearly $10.8bn to make it cheaper for miners, farmers and some other industries to use diesel and petrol. Serious reform of the fuel tax credit subsidy is long overdue. #auspol #climatechange www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Not every love story is about a person.
Some of our deepest, most enduring relationships are with places.
Will you join us and write a love letter to nature?

Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.
Meanwhile fossil-addled US struggles with an energy-price crisis ...
Are they laughing at themselves? Because if so, I get it.
Proud to work for ACF!

Found it.
Over the next few days, you are going to see me reshare it every time an influential climate scientist points out that no, the southern ocean's overturning current hasn't reversed.
The reviewed article did not even come close to supporting what was in the media release everyone shared.
. @australianlabor.bsky.social have signed off on the destruction of one of Australia and the world’s greatest cultural and artistic treasures.
Murujuga is 8X as old as the Pyramids and at least as important, and is being destroyed by Woodside’s acid gas emissions.

What a relief! The fallout from the Coalition's reactor plan is only political... ☢️ #auspol
Woodside wants to extend the life of its North West Shelf gas hub out to 2070. ACF campaigner Piper Rollins spoke with Sky News about the big decision waiting on new Environment Minister Murray Watt’s desk. #auspol #ClimateAction #ProtectMurujuga #NWShelf
4 yrs ago today, I witnessed a volcanic eruption for the first time, close enough to feel the intense warmth of the Earth's creation on my skin. It literally changed my life. I may spend the rest of my life seeking an experience as powerful as this and never find it, and that's okay.
The Albanese govt went to the 2022 election promising thorough reform of the national nature law. That promise remains unfulfilled. It’s time to get on with the job. #auspol 7news.com.au/news/anthony...
1) Labor gets reelected in landslide.
2) Nationals increase their primary vote
3) Farmers most likely to be impacted by climate change
4) Matt Canavan calls for Net Zero to be scrapped.
Farmers must learn that the Nats don’t act in their best interests.

Oceans are now storing 90% of the excess heat from global warming. This has led to a mass coral bleaching event starting in 2023 that has impacted almost 84% of the world's reefs.
“Coral reefs probably won't survive much above 1.5°C of global mean warming”, @billhare.bsky.social told @cnn.com
Setting the tone for our campaigning at ACF for this term of government.
May Labor’s legacy be the leaders who finally stopped fossil fuel expansion during the most critical moment of history to make a difference.
Please.
Like many of you, I am sure, I am gutted that @zoedaniel.bsky.social has lost her seat 😢
I have been so impressed with her drive, tenacity, smarts and sense of social justice.
Unlike Tim Wilson, she showed up during this campaign. It’s truly baffling *anyone* would vote for an empty chair. 🪑
Seriously I wish there were more reporters like Adam in the Aussie media scene. Too many gloss over climate change as an inconsequential afterthought rather than THE biggest existential challenge we’ve ever faced in human history.
Yes. 🙌
@adammorton.bsky.social has nailed the question we’ve all been thinking about.
I really hope they will choose courage and conviction over timidity and the status quo.
After all there’s a good chance Labor will continue to govern to 2030: which is crunch time for climate action.

The climate and environment movement very effectively demolished nuclear in Australia.
You better believe we’re coming for gas next.
Watch this space.
Right. Well now the Libs are cooked, here’s hoping Labor can locate their spines this upcoming term.
No need to play the safe middle ground now, they must take genuine action on climate, starting with.. and I’ll say it louder for the folks up the back: NO NEW COAL AND GAS.
#AusPol
Stop approving coal and gas is surely your next phase of climate action? Because this needs to happen now. No more free passes for the fossil fuel lobby.
A climate election? The Coalition wants to take Australia backwards, while Labor is standing still

Election ready! #nonewcoalandgas
Before the Aussie election, don’t miss this from filmmaker Damon Gameau - the depths the far right will go to destroy our democracy ? It’s all here! #advance youtube.com/watch?v=ecqD... #auspol
