If Penny Wong is serious about the Australian govt wanting to *do something* to stop the #GazaGenocide, Francesca Albanese provided a handy list a couple of months ago. #auspol

Has Trump actually checked out the scenery around a coal mine or oil rigs? His personal hateful opinion on #renewables should never be the basis for the USA rejecting the crisis of global #ClimateChange
