23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23.
20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t.
They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.
“This delivery ushers in a new era for Australian road freight where electric heavy trucks are not just cheaper and faster, they unshackle Australia from volatile global oil markets, dramatically strengthening our supply chain resilience,”
This has been the GOP's "starve-the-beast" scheme for nearly 50 years. Meanwhile, millions suffer and struggle to get ahead as the rich get richer. See the problem here?
The only good thing to come out of the NACC is that it gave Rick Morton the opportunity and incentive to use the phrases “porridge brain” and “plutonium-grade stupid” in successive sentences.

We burn fossil fuels and forests, pumping the sky full of poison until the air we breathe chokes us. Children in cities grow up with lungs the size of smokers’. Glaciers melt. Storms intensify. The atmosphere isn’t some distant sky. It’s the blanket that keeps our dinner table from burning

Just keep driving.
“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.
Rest in power, Jesse Jackson

Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I find it incredibly difficult to write about my Jewishness. I didn't want to write this, but I did.
We need to re-embrace complexity and nuance in thinking about and discussing the Jewish future.
What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.
“ .. where the Crown no longer distorts risk signals and blunts incentives to manage risk .. “ - Climate Minister Simon Watts.
Homeowners will find out how expensive full insurance is compared with taxes.
From listening to the evidence given in this senate committee - there is a large, well funded and well organised global network of groups, orgs, think tanks etc which are funded by the fossil fuel sector - doing everything they possibly can to obstruct climate progress #auspol
exactly like the Chinese surveillance state
The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

The same groups advising on how to disarm the intergenerational economic bombs that have started to explode are the same groups that helped set them, writes Amy Remeikis.
This is how broken our lobbying laws are.
Every resources minister since 2001 went on to work for fossil fuel companies & 8 ex-ministers & senior advisers now lobby for gambling💰
It's time for complete reform of lobbying rules + independent watchdog.

The Labor Govt delayed approving one of 🇦🇺's biggest fossil fuel projects until after the election & is now hiding the National Climate Risk Assessment.
Australians deserve honesty.
Selling out the people & places we love to vested interests must stop.

Mullins also wrote in his email to the vice-chancellor that the state Department of Water and Environmental Regulation had probably “hoped everyone would only read the summary and not the full report”
Australia’s biggest miners have pocketed almost $60BN in diesel tax subsidies in <20 years.
Unless we act, taxpayers lose $84BN more by 2030.
It makes no sense for 🇦🇺ns to pay tax while coal giants get a free pass.
End this fossil fuel subsidy now.

Labor talk a big game on climate action but their first act after the election was to approve the biggest fossil fuel project in Australia out to 2070.
They need to set a strong target to be able to cut emissions here & pressure global leaders to take action
