One of our biggest gas customers is calling to move off fossil fuels Australia. That’s gonna hurt! Good!

“When mayors in other cities ask me how #Copenhagen afforded to invest in its cycling networks, I ask them how on earth they have been able to afford highway projects. We invested in bike lanes because that was the cheapest option.” What the world can learn from Copenhagen’s cycling revolution.

Next wave of hybrids so much better.

At least most of the country has had an unseasonal March drink

National Press Club copping heavy criticism AGAIN I reported on the arms industry's infiltration of the NPC in Nov (after it cancelled Chris Hedges) More than a quarter of the NPC’s sponsors are part of the global arms industry or working on its behalf undueinfluence.substack.com/p/arms-indus...

But good luck getting any cash seeing as they are insolvent.

The world needs to seek reparations from the US for climate and war damages. A flailing empire, a dangerous blight on the civilise world.

"In 2025 alone, the upper ocean stored an extra 23 zettajoules of heat. That’s roughly the equivalent of 12 Hiroshima bombs exploding every second for a year." www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/while-w...

I wrote about this recently.

Most people still don't understand what is coming in the world of energy. This graph should help but what would be good is to see this everywhere in the media so the public understood that what they think they know about renewable tech and EVs is not up to date.

There is away to limit food price rises - to stop turning so much food 🌽 into biofuels But governments are doing the opposite - increasing biofuel production to limit fuel price rises. This won't have much impact on fuel prices but will hike food prices a lot www.newscientist.com/article/2499...

Fertiliser shortages? Let’s grow biofuel 🤯

Consumer confidence in Australia lowest on record. Yet stock market remains resilient. The cash will dry up soon and the bears will gut this market. It’s right now, I want to convert my super into a small plot of land.

Australian banks face climate stress as home insurance crisis widens 30% of households in regional centres may be uninsured by 2050 “When homes are uninsured or underinsured, losses are more likely to be borne directly by households, banks, or the government"... www.afr.com/companies/fi...

As the world is looking at fossil fuels with fresh eyes, I took a look at Australian defence and foreign policy thinktanks that have been advocating for more gas extraction, even as they have been taking money from the US, Japanese and Korean governments. Here's me in @drilledmedia.bsky.social:

Thanks to @snarkygherkin.bsky.social for pointing out this performative nonsense from a National Party MP. Presumably it is, as The Gherk suggests, another “well done, Angus” moment of deploying the wrong account. 🙄 #Auspol

Excise relief socialises cost nationally while privatising direct benefit to fuel users Public transport relief socialises both cost & service access for those who actually depend on collective transport Aus to spend ~$850M/month on fuel-tax relief that omits non-drivers & EV owners from benefit

Excellent announcement by ARENA today expanding electric freight charging infrastructure in Victoria. NewVolt will deliver three open-access, fast‑charging hubs for heavy and medium electric trucks along major freight corridors in Melbourne’s west, south-east and northern suburbs.

Gina Rinehart is popping some fresh cookers in the oven. #AusPol #TaxOligarchsNow

A group of friends in their mid-20s campaigned door to door last week in a small Hungarian city, supporting a political movement that soon could end Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's 16-year grip on power.

Fuel excise cut is criminal really. Economists warn that a fuel excise cut could boost inflation — and make mortgage rate hikes more likely. Meanwhile the Liberal party is saying it was their idea. So this has to be bad!

$2.5 billion fossil fuel hand out with nothing to show at the end of it! While oil companies will benefit by price gauging.

@albomp.bsky.social What about interest free loans on EV’s? Cash for polluting clunkers? Free bikes? Home delivered Bunnings sausages? Anything but a fossil fuel subsidy, but No let’s drive fuel use when there is no fuel.

Heritage Foundation is but one of the 550+ pseudo “non-profit economics research institutes“ comprising the big oil/corporate propganda disinfor nation and state capture machine of the #AtlasNetwork operating in 100 nations.

Fossil fuel money funds climate lies. AI slopaganda’ spreads it #auspol “Parliamentary privilege for submissions enabled publication of compelling evidence on use of “astroturfing” & the role of “dark money” to influence mainstream public debate www.smh.com.au/environment/... archive.md/6VHEO

Omg! Huge shoutout to San Francisco, CA! Ocean Beach, you crushed it! 🌊

The Grassy Mountain project, which Rinehart purchased from Riversdale Resources in 2019 for $740 million, proposed to dig up 4.5 million tonnes of metallurgical coal a year over a 23-year period in a critical watershed of the Oldman River in southern Alberta near the Crowsnest Pass.

Gina Rinehart is causing great distress in Alberta. Her relentless prosecution of her Rocky Mountains coal mine is disgraceful and will do untold damage to a pristine area of the Rockies. And she is actually suing Canada! #coal #rockymountains #ginarinehart

Cyclone Narelle has shut down 44pc of WA's gas supply and hit LNG exports just when they are needed most. Chevron's Wheatstone, Santos' Varanus Island and Woodside's NWS are all not producing. www.boilingcold.com.au/cyclone-nare...

It’s hard to see real estate being a good long term investment. Population decline everywhere must become a drag.

Lovely day to be an insurance broker in WA 😬

Well, one thing that sets it apart is consciousness

Excellent story on Greece’s population issues.

Yes. Not by accident. Eg Malcolm Roberts has worked with the OG Cold War science denying scientists (😭 don’t be mean to industrialists killing people or you’ll help the commies) #auspol open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...

"SUVs weigh 200-300 kg more than an average medium-sized car, and typically take up nearly 0.3 m2 more space – emitting roughly 20% more carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions." Do folks still remember why we consume so much oil? #Deregulation www.iea.org/commentaries...

AFR should rename itself ExxonMobil PR #Auspol

Didn’t realise 20% of Israel’s population is Russian speaking. Explains a lot like the love for bombing cities flat?

Again for the hard of thinking. Iran is run by cunts. Israel is run by cunts. Russia is run by cunts. The United States is run by cunts.

Over 80% of Israel’s oil is supplied by a small number of countries, primarily Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Russia. Israel very cute with Russia in recent years. A hedge against the US exiting the building?

Oil still flowed during COVID. This is far worse in terms of inflation. A demand versus a supply collapse.

Trump's war against Iran is upending his plans for US energy dominance, causing chaos in a region oil executives had hoped he would open up for foreign investment as shale production slows.

The US-Israel war on Iran has emitted 5 million tonnes of CO₂ₑ in its first 14 days. The world currently has 0.6 million tonnes of novel and permanent CO₂ removal (CDR) capacity annually.

US false flag.

Iran 🇮🇷 is not Venezuela 🇻🇪 Who knew? 🤪
