Repeat after me - we can't drill, pipe, or log our way out of this crisis.
No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

A reminder:
- Australia collects more revenue from HECS than the PRRT
- Nurses pay more tax than oil and gas companies
- Coalition and Greens agree there's no supply shortage
- Big gas is taking the piss
Australia collects more revenue from HECS than from the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax.
It’s time to increase the PRRT so that gas companies pay their fair share. #auspol

🧡 In March 2022, Just Stop Oil burst onto the scene with young people swarming the red carpet at the BAFTAs to demand an end to new oil and gas licences in the UK.
🔥 This was the first of hundreds of actions and thousands of arrests.

New:
A house that cannot be insured cannot be mortgaged. No bank will issue loans for uninsurable property. Whole areas are already becoming not just unaffordable but completely uninsurable.
The implications seem too much for the duopoly to even consider.

Finland is aiming to go carbon neutral in 15 years. They're creating jobs by boosting #renewables and saving trees. Its CO2 emissions have already dropped 21% since 1990s levels.
We have the solutions, let's speed it up and implement them. #ActOnClimate

Nannas are calling for more climate action because extreme weather events result in higher costs for all. Native forest logging, health impacts of coal -fired power and our weak environmental laws were also on last week's agenda. knittingnannas.org/2025/04/0…

War is among the most destructive forces on Earth, and not just for the people caught in its path. While humanitarian impacts dominate headlines, the environmental costs are immense and largely ignored.

A must read during Minister @tanya_plibersek’s greenwashing Nature Positive Summit.
Australian Government spending is actually hugely ‘Nature Negative’.
50 times more government money is spent harming the environment than protecting it!👇🏽 biodiversitycouncil.org.au/n…

It’s 👏 the 👏 fossil 👏 fuel 👏 pollution 👏
The Gulf of Mexico is the hottest it’s ever been on this date. Hotter water makes storms stronger.
We’re in a full blown, five alarm climate emergency from burning oil, gas, and coal.

I haven’t seen this much acknowledgement before that climate change is well and truly here. Wondering if Hurricane Milton may be some kind of turning point where people realise that Murdoch etc and the rich lied because they didn’t want to pay to fix it

Two weeks after approving coal mine expansions, the Aus Govt hosts the Global #NaturePositive Summit. Confused? Fair enough! You can't be 'nature positive' while locking in decades of climate pollution. That is peak hypocrisy #auspol dailyadvertiser.com.au/story…

To all the people who still think climate change is a "hoax": Your leaders fooled you. Please set ideology aside and accept reality. We need all hands to deal with irreversible global overheating, which is causing stronger hurricanes and other impacts.

How in the goddamned fuck do we live in a world where Israel killed way more people in Palestine and Lebanon in the past week than died via Hamas on October 7th yet to listen to politicians & media orgs today you’d barely know those victims even fucking existed?

It is our commitment to peace and justice that drives the passionate response of millions of people in Australia and around the world to demand an end to the killing and real action against those perpetrating war crimes.

We should all be in tears.
This was preventable
#FossilFuel companies knew they were destroying the earth years ago
Despicable. I loath them with every bone in my body.

Removing the words “climate change” from Florida textbooks doesn’t seem to be working @FloridaGOP

The Govt promised a lot but hasn't delivered for threatened species & conservation
Min Plibersek has been undermined at every turn-inadequate funding, the PM kicking enviro law reform beyond the election & stalled negotiations on EPA
🇦🇺s deserve better
