Today, I'm backed by my senator, @DavidPocock, in launching my campaign to establish a duty of care owed by politicians to young people, ensuring that our health and wellbeing is considered when making decisions that could affect the climate system.

I had a few thoughts that I wanted to share while writing my submission for the new National Cultural Policy. Thanks so much to @ArtsHub for sharing. #regionaltouring #artsaressential @CriticalStages artshub.com.au/news/opinions…

Reality check comes before National Cultural Policy 

Blue-sky thinking about the arts is essential but the sector needs support right now, argues Chris Bendall.

ECO-TOURING: Can the arts keep its carbon footprint down or should all touring stop to save the planet? “I believe art is about touching on the now and this is a massive topic in the world. Everything we have now is not going to be what we have tomorrow.” theguardian.com/stage/2022/s…

‘What if we stopped?’ How Australian arts tours are changing to save the planet

From booking fewer flights to mending socks, companies are focusing on cutting emissions. Can their small changes add up?

Over 1 million species now face extinction, many within the next few decades. We are facing multiple crises at the same time. There is no planet B, there is no time to waste. We are losing more than time every single day. #ActOnClimate #climate #nature #rewilding #biodiversity

“Gas simply has no place in the fight to stop global warming beyond 1.5℃ this century. The big question is whether the Albanese government, if it wants to be taken seriously on climate change, will take that on board.” #ActOnClimate

Germany is aiming to get 100% of its power from #renewables by 2035. This is the path to real energy security. Let's speed it up. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #ClimateEmergency #climate #energy #solar #wind #renewableenergy
