This is the picture I use. This is what Nigel Farage wants the UK to look like when he allows fracking. I don't think people realise the density of wells needed to extract gas from an area.

Here is a coal mine, tiny, isn't it 🤥

JFC!! Give us farms covered with solar panels (and grazing) anytime.

Proof beyond doubt that Santos doesn't care about the environment, Australian public safety & that Gas is not a safe transition vehicle to renewables. @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social get with it Chris. Stop fossil fuel subsidies, divert them to free rooftop solar, use surplus for free green hydrogen.

Want to make an economist orgasm? A Pigouvian tax on immobile resources - gas and thermal coal - at 1% by market value for the first year, increasing by an additional percent every year. Add metallurgical coal in 2030. Resource companies live in sunk cost fallacy - let us milk it for three reasons.

Nest-boxes and Tree Tactics The Caveat Forest, location of The Last Stand project on the Southern Greater Glider (Petauroides volans), is healing, slowly. One of the main consequences of 150 years of settler farming is that the forest is young and has relatively few big, old trees, aka habitat…

A great piece by @juliancribb.bsky.social tackling and summarising very technical concepts. What chance ANY consequential decision makers will bother to grapple with the detail? 🫤🙁🥹 Even though the consequences for 🌏 are beyond dire.

A pertinent message for Senator Murray Watt, though as Environment Minister, addressing the environmental crisis seems to be beyond his portfolio.

At 5% GDP, consumption will double in about 15 years! For a country with over 1B people, that rate of ‘growth’, alone, could break the biosphere.

Surely some leader of the world could sign an Executive Order, call in the National Guard and stop this madness!!

I've wanted to make this video for literal years, and finally summoned the courage. Is permafrost *really* a climate time bomb? Thank you @davidamckay.bsky.social for the input! youtu.be/97-egzC-xjk

Seriously tragic. But for a moment I thought it was a pic of Gaza.

At a climate crunchpoint, building connections is a matter of life and death.

The Victorian government is planning very restrictive new laws which will limit how & where people can protest. This rally will happen next tuesday outside parliament in Naarm/ Melbourne.

@albomp.bsky.social Before and after photis of Gaza Albanese... blah blah friends with Israel blah blah right to self defence blah blah we send F-35 parts to Israel but they're non lethal...the release mechanism for the bombs blah blah

Before Reagan, trickle-down economics was called the Horse & Sparrow Theory - if you feed the horse enough oats, the sparrows can then eat the stale oats with a side of manure. Bon appétit!

EXTRAORDINARY DAY We are witnessing something historic and unprecedented in 3 centuries of climatic history: Dozens of thousands of records are being brutalized allover Oceania,Asia,Africa,Europe in just few hours BY FAR the most record breaking day in history Updates coming.

There is much more they need to be doing besides recognizing the unalienable right Palestinians have to self-determination. Right now.

A bit presumptuous to use the word ‘launched’ in this context.

The brutal callousness of ‘the lobby’ and its enablers is just horrifying. Do those people belong to Homo sapiens? #auspol

🚨Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal is attempting to put universities "under control of a political lobby" in an "unprecedented attack", say more than 380 academics in explosive open letter. Comes amid yet more formal calls for PM to "Sack Segal" following The Klaxon’s expose… theklaxon.com.au/d73t

I like to think of the snail tree as a cosmos which is inhabited by worlds, and which thrives because so much and so many can find a place and a life there. Contrary to what some still reiterate, nature thrives with the many, not with someone who dominates, dictates or exploits. 7/7

Here comes 10,000! It's been a little over four years since iNaturalist SNAP! began (March 2021) and in that time it has grown steadily. It's now be a substantial data-base of nearly 10,000 observations (9,506 as of today). This includes almost 2000 individual species contributed by over 500…

It’s a direct consequence of having sociopathic, damaged, easily seduced, morally blinkered, mainly men running the world. Oz political leaders- Albo, Chalmers, Morrison, Howard - are all at that table. If you can’t agree that Gaza is a genocide, you shouldn’t be in any position of influence. 😢

A group of Australia's top environmental scientists calls for changes to prescribed burning after government documents confirm hundreds of trees in an ecological hotspot have been destroyed by a government-lit fire.

Penny has completely lost her way, or else she is completely hamstrung by the trappings of office (and Australia’s geo-political coupling to the US) that her decisions are made for her. 😕

My heart is hurting for the Torres Strait and the community who brought the historic legal challenge on climate grounds to the Albanese’s government and lost today. They say they are steadfast in their fight for Country and Culture. If only Albanese had an ounce of their courage.

Shame on you Tony Burke. Be the adult in the room and cut her loose. Any cred you had coming into this is fast evaporating.

So @albomp.bsky.social, when does Jillian Segal get her marching orders, or are you totally cool supporting someone that actively supports a hard right agenda, including defeating the Voice. What’s it going to be, Albo? Let’s see ABC’s coverage too., theklaxon.com.au/jillian-sega...

Another very thoughtful, considered summary of US impact on global financial, manufacturing and trade systems. No shouting, hyperventilating or exaggeration. Just calm presentation of facts. And interesting perspective on the roles of China, BRICS etc m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pnca...
