Our environmental laws are broken and the government has no appetite for reform. DEA took on the case to challenge and progress the legal argument. We lost the case but others now have an easier path. We could use some help with our chuffed campaign chuffed.org/project/1455...

Taking Woodside to court was a huge risk for a small not-for-profit like ours, but we knew we had to try. Unfortunately, Australia’s environmental laws are not fit for purpose, and we lost the case. We now have to pay 80k in legal costs. Please share + donate if you can: tinyurl.com/4jt8supv

Santos sponsoring the Tour Down Under is like Benson & Hedges sponsoring the cricket, it’s using sport to push their harmful unhealthy product. #TourDownUnder #FossilFuelsAreAHealthHazard #climatechange

Merry Christmas everyone

Extra 1.7 BILLION TONNES of CO2 What's not to love about going nuclear? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Time to think about growing our #auspol BlueSky community Do you have a friend, family member, colleague, neighbour who is political or a little political & would like to lean more into our democracy? Let them know about us here on BlueSky - & ask them to join us What do you think? We need allies

It people have capacity to support DEA that would help us campaign for a healthy planet. DEA is a not-for-profit meaning all donations are used for our work. It helps our members who volunteer their time for climate health advocacy

Our governments are failing us by perpetuating our dependency on fossil fuels

Just a bit excited ☺️

Perth is totally owned by the fossil fuel industry. Their influence is everywhere you look

Perth, a pictorial essay

The air pollution crisis in South Asia is a visible & devastating reminder that burning fossil fuels comes at the cost of our air quality and health. Our report outlines the facts, but these images of cities shrouded in toxic air speak louder than our words ever could. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...

Tks to the 70+ NGOs who supported this AFR ad calling for protecting our right to protest, campaign & take legal action when corps & govts are in the wrong. We'll need to fight if we are to protect what has worked for centuries to bring change to right wrongs & move forward! #defendthedefenders

When are we going to figure it out? We need to quit fossil fuels before we kill life on earth. Heavy but true

Just devastating how we are destroying life on earth, so that fossil fuels executives can make a massive profit.

We need to quit fossil fuels to protect health Very proud day in Parliament House for me

It's Lib/Lab (and their enablers) vs the rest of us #auspol

Heat waves means more heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease, suicidality and domestic violence. It’s time to quit fossil fuels to protect health

“Firefighters battle two out-of-control blazes as other communities brace for winds, storms and possible flash flooding” but climate deniers are still insisting there’s nothing to see here. We need to quit fossil fuels to protect health

Hello Bluesky! We are a group of medical doctors and students, who understand that human health requires a healthy planet, with an environment that is free of pollution and rich in biodiversity. We call for #climateaction in recognition of the health harms caused by #globalheating and #climatechange

Heavy handed action here by NSW govt Why do tough on peaceful climate protest? You’d almost think they didn’t want us to have a healthy future

The Treaty of Waitangi is a founding document for Aotearoa/NZ, and the rushed through bill to “re-interpret” it aims to weaken the treaty and reduce Māori rights Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke and Māori colleagues are not going to take it lying down Love the power of this video. #Socialjustice

Even through the toughest of times, we will continue to stand up for the health of our people and our planet. Keep going, keep showing up. Together, we can do this 💚 #climatechange #globalwarming

Second post of my beautiful dog Willa, bc although I am primarily here for progressive politics, dogs are the best.
