To try to justify new mines, Whitehaven references a coal demand scenario that remains flat over this decade, when @IEA says demand must halve in order to have a fighting chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C

Two-thirds of voters would prefer Coalition support renewables rather than new gas plants but do you think the PM cares? No strong opposition from Labor means no accountability. Frustrated? Get behind Crossbench and Independents. #auspol theguardian.com/australia-ne… – at Sydney, New South Wales

Replying to @mattjcan
Riddle me this Matt Aust has been dependent on coal energy for a long time, in fact, all through the decline of manufacturing in Australia What makes you think that, in 2020, mining coal & coal-fired power is magically going to create manufacturing? How's that work? 🐝 #auspol

THIS >> Greg Bourne, a former president of BP Australasia, said private money was fleeing the gas sector around the world. "It is like announcing you are going to invest in the horse and cart just after Henry Ford has started producing cars." 🤦‍♀️#auspol smh.com.au/environment/clima…

🛑👇🏼is simply not true. Gas delivers less than half the jobs renewables deliver and will push energy prices up for families and businesses. Govt is delivering uncertainty. You are about #matesnotmarkets @Matt_KeanMP we need those renewable energy zones like yesterday! #auspol – at Sydney, New South Wales
A gas-fired recovery will help re-establish Australia’s strong economy by making energy more affordable for families and businesses and supporting jobs as part of 🇦🇺 recovery from COVID-19 #auspol @theheraldsun minister.industry.gov.au/min…

Calling all #farmers (and supporters)! Let the @NationalFarmers' Federation know you support their new climate policy (including #netzero goal) by retweeting us or, better yet, writing your own supportive tweet and tagging them. #climateaction #climatechange

The words 'I Can't Breathe" are spelled out by 433 candles by First Nation campaigners in Brisbane's Musgrave Park. The candles symbolise the 432 indigenous Australians who have died in custody since the 1991 Deaths in Custody report and one for George Floyd, killed in the US.

Powerful video #stayathome ‘’This is serious” “We are frightened” #covid19 #wellbeing ⁦@RCPI_news⁩
don’t wait for the gov’t @ItaButtrose! just put @normanswan on TV at 5pm every day for 15 minutes.
Following on from @ItaButtrose’s suggestion this morning, it’s high time for a daily #COVID19Aus briefing from one agreed-upon figure, be it CMO Brendan Murphy or whomever. A fixed time. Every day. We’ve got to the stage where the mixed messaging is causing excessive anxiety.

.@GretaThunberg, don’t let anyone dim your light. Like the girls I’ve met in Vietnam and all over the world, you have so much to offer us all. Ignore the doubters and know that millions of people are cheering you on.

"Don't speak to me about anger, I am extremely angry about what's happened to us a family...but it's not helpful to give in to those things. It's not helpful to Jo's kids." Take a minute to listen to the incredible words of Jo Cox's sister, on why we must all tone down the hate.

“I’m a climate fighter”. Listen to ten-year-old Parker recite a spoken word poem at the Brisbane #ClimateStrike. “Wake-up people, the time is now. Do you really need a 10-year-old to show you how?”
