“While Australian households and businesses are being stung by extremely high fuel prices caused by the crisis, gas companies are reaping extraordinary profits from this same crisis.”

Perverse indeed, and time Australia starts thinking of its future generations.

Australia isn’t immune to this either.

You can already see it in our tax incentives and housing market - the system increasingly rewards wealth accumulation over work.

We risk losing sight of supporting those who need it most now, and our next generation.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.

The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.

It’s time for accountability.

Up to $1.4 billion in medical research remains unused under government cap Researchers say securing funding has become increasingly tough, with many left with no choice but to spend a disproportionate amount of time applying for grants.

$1.4 Billion in unused medical research funding. 😭

C’mon Australia - you’re crippling your own future.

Today the United States wasted another #1B on an illegal war in Iran, money that could have been spent on funding health care or providing SNAP benefits or cancer research or academic scholarships for minorities. I could go on and on but I think you get my point. #endtheiranwarnow

When there’s such clear evidence that investing in science brings $$ back to Australians, not spending it is like refusing compound interest.

Hard to see the logic.

Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either

When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

For 100+ years fossil fuels had subsidies, tax breaks, military protection, pollution externalized & zero carbon pricing. Renewables and EVs get a short-term rebate and suddenly it’s “market distortion.” If combustion was truly superior, it wouldn’t need a century of life support. #Bettrification

A stark cover editorial in The Lancet.

When one of the world’s leading medical journals speaks this plainly, it’s not politics, it’s a warning about trust in science and public health.

Rebuilding trust takes decades. Losing it only take a few months.

That should concern us all.

Electric vehicles deliver radical emissions cut – driven by the federal tax exemption The Electric Car Discount has had its naysayers, but it's definitely doing what it promised: boosting EV sales and cutting transport emissions.

Australia’s FBT exemption cuts transport emissions > live. By lowering upfront costs, it’s accelerating #EV uptake (~13% of new sales) & pushing petrol emissions below pre-COVID levels. Policy shifts > markets. Incentives + standards = structural decarb. #Bettrification keeps winning ⚡

It’s so sad to see our Tax $ going to an industry that direct harms human health and the planet, while scientists working on the cures for said issues are severely underfunded.

$30 Million each day. Imagine how many science labs that would fund.

Australia, time to do better!

Let’s not forget EVs are still early in their cycle and rapidly evolving. 5 years from now there will be a lot more 2nd hand EVs, and prices for new vehicles will cover the spectrum from affordable to luxury. Just like how ICE vehicles currently do.

“CO₂ is good for crops” is like saying “steroids build muscle” and stopping there.

Yes, fertilisation effects exist. But field constraints, extreme heat, water stress and nutrient limits matter.
