Such a loss 😢

Good morning. How about 2000 words about the state of the US oil industry? "Hamm admitted the Bakken is 'tapped out.' The reason he is buying shale assets in other countries is because the reality is that the U.S. oil industry is tapped out."

Poor reporting. Comparing impacts of CC to RE projects is daft. On that basis you can justify anything. Metaphors like “there's no omelette you can make without breaking any eggs” lead to simplistic thinking and curtail deeper consideration. And the last para in the article is just NONSENSE!!

Transparency? Accountability? Trust? The @albomp.bsky.social government is going from bad to worse.

A narcissist in cognitive decline? open.substack.com/pub/joycemst...

Just shocking. Is the #Zionist lobby as strong in #Germany as in the #USA open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/...

“If a house is uninsurable, it is unmortgageable.” – Dr Richard Denniss Fossil fuels are making climate change worse – and ordinary Australians are paying the price. ✍️ Add your name to the call for a national climate disaster levy: nb.australiainstitute.org.au/climatedisas...

After devastating fires in 1939, authorities began burning forests to reduce fuel load. But we now know this creates conditions for even worse fires.

Nothing surprising about government response - maintaining low level #corruption.

A good example of why @australiainstitute.org.au has started @thepointau.bsky.social: Not news, but it should be

Listen, it’s 2025. Every national and global indicator of environmental health is going south. The planet is set for a catastrophic future. ANY decision that’s ‘good for business’ will likely lead to bad outcomes for the planet. We are led by narrow interests, transactional politics & zero wisdom.

“Haste brings unintended consequences” and such consequences will overwhelmingly be negative for human and environmental wellbeing. But hey, GDP …..

JFC. Literally punishing kids/vulnerable people for the failures of the system. Do these people have an ounce of empathy or even intelligence?

Just beautiful.

Simple really. A government that coordinates with another entity it knows to be corrupt (organisation, government etc), is also corrupt.

Deliberately poisoning people AND the entire biosphere. Slow suicide. Is #PFAS used in agricultural chemical formulations in #Australia?

Australians voted for climate action! Australia Institute research shows that Australia is currently expanding fossil fuels. We need stronger environmental laws that stop new coal and gas projects. Sign your name here: nb.australiainstitute.org.au/strong_envir...

The reasons for hating this federal Labor government are stacking up. If there ever were 'true labor values', this mob has buried them deep.

AI is a disaster, every step. Limited upside, existentially massive downside.

Israeli government officials are openly accusing Netanyahu for October 7. The world knows. 👏💙👏💙👏💙👏

It’s pretty simple. Israel uses white phosphorus as part of its ecocide against Lebanon, to render as much of the South as possible unliveable for human beings. They dynamite entire villages, cause forest fires with drone strikes, uproot countless olive and other trees, and kill the soil.

This is bad. Sarah Kendzior is one of the scholars that most understands authoritarianism and our current moment in the US.

It all makes sense if your primary lens is money, profit and **gambling**.

Yawang – a Cultural Reserve The Victorian Government recently announced its commitment to creating a Cultural Reserve across the entire Strathbogie State Forest. Planning and management of the reserve will follow a "collaborative governance" arrangement with Traditional Owners, the Taungurung Land…

“far-left recipe for success” ??? Oh ABC 🤥

wherever the arms trade operates, it “increases corruption and undermines democracy, good governance, transparency, and the rule of law, while, ironically, making us less safe”. Thanks @michaelwestbiz.bsky.social

David Marr has killed LNL for me. His enthusiastic ego constantly gets in the way. His treatment of Chris Hedges was embarrassing and disgusting.

Deadly H5 stain is decimating wildlife worldwide and still spreading, and the best that our DAF and DEECCW officials can say is ‘there’s no cause for alarm’. JFC!!!

Surprise, surprise 🙁

The success of a small, autumn prescribed burn on WA's south coast has prompted calls to replace the regular program to reduce environmental damage.

If actions speak louder than words, it’s clear @albomp.bsky.social couldn’t really give a sh!t about all his pre-election rhetoric.

I reckon we can pretty much ignore any position the Victorian Opposition takes. They have made themselves irrelevant.

Yep, it’s crazy, it’s devoid of evidence based decisions, it’s ‘out of sight - out of mind’ and it’s all too common across Victoria. ‘Fuel reduction burning’ is a perfect example of thinking in words - empty words. The practice has little relation to reality on the ground.

Your 'doom quote' for today: "Today's environmental movement stands upon the shoulders of giants, but something has gone terribly wrong ... Mainstream environmentalists now overwhelmingly prioritize saving industrial civilization over saving life on the planet." www.amazon.com/Bright-Green...

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.

🌏 Have never before seen an Apostlebird (Struthidea cinerea), one of the highly social mud-nest builders, so habituated to human presence. I guess he/she gets out more than I do! #Australia

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…
