HEY here's a new piece for @crikey.com.au! Sparked by David Suzuki's recent comments, but more broadly in response to the recent rise of performative fatalism: the reassuring, widely popular and lazy idea that fighting back against fossil fuels is worthless www.crikey.com.au/2025/07/14/c...

Sydney people: Next Monday the Sydney Environment Institute kicks off a new panel series on Climate Justice. We'll talk about climate turbulence, heat inequity, the housing crisis, Indigenous leadership, community engagement, and more, with a great set of speakers. Register below.

A powerful polemic by Christine Winter @winterchristine.bsky.social on the lies and violence of the latest colonial apologists. Focused on Aotearoa New Zealand, but clearly applicable, ehem, elsewhere. www.artforum.com/features/epi...

Of course. "Mr. Zeldin’s move effectively ends three decades of work at the E.P.A. to try to ease the pollution that burdens poor and minority communities, which are frequently located near highways, power plants, industrial plants, and other polluting facilities. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/c...

New: Compounding Barriers to Environmental Justice. It has long been argued (and clearly demonstrated) that institutionalised racism is a key barrier to EJ. We illustrate 4 distinct, interrelated ways this is manifest: general, political, legal, and cultural. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

I know this is the piece we're all getting excited about today. Reader, I did not love it. Yes, there's been an irreversible, if slow, shift to a clean energy economy. And the coalition has broadened and should do so further. But... www.nytimes.com/2024/12/08/o...

The Australian government is not only ignoring the unjust impacts of climate change on future generations, but is also actively and explicitly arguing against climate and intergenerational justice - to allow the expansion of a coal mine. Disgusting....
