"On the day of the approval, Tassal started using florfenicol at two salmon farm leases at Dover in Tasmania's far south, and other companies are expected to begin using it soon."

Yet another record breaking storm supersized by a warming world 😢 Climate change doesn’t create these storms: it makes them worse. They intensify faster, reach higher strengths and dump more rain. That’s why climate action isn’t just about saving the planet: it’s quite literally about saving US.

James Watson’s history is being rewritten here, but this obituary confirms he was a 🦖dick with a common behaviour pattern “He loved getting a rise out of people,” the lab friend said. “And when you think of yourself as a master of the universe, you think you can, or should, get away with things.”

October 2025 was the 3rd warmest October on record for our planet, following 2023 (1st place) and 2024 (2nd place). This month was about 1.55°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial average. The last 12-months have been about 1.50°C above it. Summary of month: climate.copernicus.eu/surface-air-... 🛠️🧪🌊

Anyone noticing? Freezing hires in some federal gov departments, lack of support for critical infrastructure in BOM, threat of reduction in size of CSIRO. Some increase in taxes on resource extraction and their sale offshore might be useful🤔

It’s come to this. So sad for my once amazing organisation. That said, I still say 99% of people at the operational coalface put 110% every day into making Australia safer and more prosperous. I’ve never experienced more passion in a public service. Anywhere. New CEO literally starts tomorrow.

Typhoon FUNG-WONG is heading to the Philippines as the equivalent of a major Atlantic hurricane. What’s really stands out is its immense eye. At one point today its eye spanned ~70 miles - about the distance from Tampa to Orlando. Picture an eye like that spanning the state!… 1/

The Collaborative Charter for #Scientific Endeavours focuses on the following areas 1. Behave with integrity 2. Identify contributions 3. Show & earn respect 4. Actively seek diversity in your teams 5. Be accountable 6. Demonstrate allyship & caring

There’s much discussion here today regarding James Watson being a dick in #science, regardless of his DNA success. If you don’t want to emulate him, colleague & I developed the Collaborative Charter for Scientific Endeavours to enhance collaborations Link here pureantarctic.org/a-collaborat...

"We need to take down the ‘for sale’ sign on Mother Earth and bar entry to Cop for oil and gas lobbyists," Brenna Yellowthunder of @ienearth.bsky.social says. See @ninalakhani.bsky.social's piece in @theguardian.com on how oil and gas are #CapturingTheCOP with lobbying access. bit.ly/Guardian117

Stella Prize-shortlisted author Debra Dank reflects on how her family’s lives were scarred by stolen wages and colonial violence – and on the complexities of apologies.

This essay is so powerful it needs a warning label - you will cry if you have even the tiniest bit of empathy in your soul. Australia colonialism laid bare with insufficient restitution and truthfulness in collective facing our history

We are at the Despicable Me stage of human development. Where a single bad guy can alter something with planetary wide impact while chasing wealth. And there are no controls 🤷🏻‍♀️ And I predict the trillionaire will not be required to make amends- corporate profits/ community cost

Dingoes ARE NOT domestic dogs, multiple lines of evidence demonstrate this. Dingoes ARE NOT ideal pets, they require extensive and special care. Dingoes ARE very important to First Nations peoples, and Australia's ecosystems. This proposed change is a very bad idea www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

You know when you’ve taken that shot that defines history.

Guterres is right. Even a temporary overshoot could unleash far greater destruction and costs for every nation. It could push ecosystems past catastrophic and irreversible tipping points. Fossil fuel companies are deceiving the public and obstructing progress. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

What are “rusted-on” Labor voters thinking ?

Goddard spacecraft engineer: "I think it just kind of speaks to the atmosphere of the agency and the nation, where people are like, 'Well, laws don't matter for the people at the top anymore.'"

“What we need is a sensible, modern approach to energy policy and hunting whales and killing them for their oil is exactly that"

As I am one of the climate scientists he is referring to here - and I am a scientist who decided to dedicate her life to working on climate precisely because of how unjustly it disproportionately impacts the poor and vulnerable - let me clarify my rationale and thoughts below. 🧵

Gift horse. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Great article from @virginiagewin.bsky.social showing that across the Federal science ecosystem, research that benefits the American public is being delayed or completely halted, and remaining programs are being consolidated under close partisan political control. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Claiming “strong environmental laws hurt business is like claiming it’s bad for restaurants to have food safety standards. It might be easier in the short term to let your prawns bake in the sun all day, but poisoning your customers isn’t a sustainable business model.” www.smh.com.au/national/our...

Scientists have typically pointed to habitat loss as the key factor behind the worldwide drop in bird populations but climate change poses a second, closely linked threat. “Climate change ‘turns up the temperature’ on all the other threats that birds face. It’s the Great Multiplier…”

if you want to know what happened to Teen Vogue yesterday, my work wife @allegrak.bsky.social — who ran our politics section for 6 years until this past June — said it all in this. can't even pull out a favorite part til I sign my separation letter lol, just read the whole thing.

Workplaces across the country have been purging all minorities from their staff for the last 9 months but no one wants to talk about it because it's one of the scariest truths out there right now.

Get the folk from Wired, before they are fire, make a new fashion and tech magazine called Scene Rogue …

In today's Emissions Gap Report we are going to learn that emissions should have fallen by 35% come 2035 if we are to remain below 2ºC That means for 10yrs emissions need to fall by ~4.2% EVERY yr I think we will hear little about the 2030 target ~7% EVERY yr. until 2030

#Dailyglimmer Aaww - two youngsters hooking up. These two have been very, very affectionate. Little pretend fights, kissing, preening each other, grazing together, then gently bonking in broad daylight 😲😂

Hooray…Its not just fossil fuel expansion where Australia leads the world… thepoint.com.au/news/251104-...

Welfare payments are increasingly conditional and subject to the whims of profiteering job agencies - who can't even help people find work! We must stop expecting Labor to be better. Maintaining an underclass of people living in permanent precarity is part of their business model.

It's Melbourne Fucup day

BREAKING: The Albanese Labor Government just joined with the Coalition to vote against an inquiry into AUKUS proposed by the Greens.

⚡️BREAKING💥We Greens have just secured a Senate Select Inquiry into Intergenerational Housing Inequity which I will be delighted to Chair. Starts March 17 2026, reports September 30th 2026. 🏠

This inquiry is a matter of urgency. It will investigate the causes of Australia’s intergenerational housing inequality, including the $181m tax breaks for wealthy investors - CGT discount & negative gearing - that are locking out first home buyers and forcing rents to skyrocket.

A separate Senate inquiry by the Greens will examine intergenerational housing inequality in Australia, including tax settings, rental and homelessness policies, and public housing investment. It will investigate solutions for tackling intergenerational housing inequality.
