Appalling! Oh no! Poor company but.. Owes State Gov big taxes, owes contractors & suppliers "many millions", poor environmental protection compliance. But local mayor ‘mining, backbone of community’ (unless you’re a contractor, supplier, gov or environment) Fixed headline: Shonky mine shut down

Stop buying Tasmanian salmon people!

Toxic salmon farming is rampant in the south east of Tasmania Here is the map of just the D'Entrecasteaux Channel showing the extent of leases and the minimum area about to impacted by release of Florfenicol.

We have upgraded our geomagnetic forecast today (12 November 2025) to the highest intensity level amid an ongoing solar storm. Current predictions suggest that the activity will result in potentially the largest solar storm to hit our planet in over two decades.

Toxic

Increased number of dolphins killed through entanglement with salmon pens May be the Tas government should instruct the industry to improve practices so as to not kill dolphins, rather not freeze their carcasses when they do 🤔😬🤬

After marathon partyroom session, Liberals determine to revert to horse-drawn night soil collection, citing importance of ‘Aussie jobs’.

Independent senator Lidia Thorpe has called on the federal government to impose penalties on Victoria, after Jacinta Allan announced laws that could see children face life sentences for serious offences "If we continue to see inaction and abuse, I'll be taking this to the UN"

Yes, it's a moral failure to allow fossil fuel pollution and fail to switch to clean energy. And a criminal failure b/c it is enabled by disinformation, fraud, and negligence. And a financial failure b/c WE are paying TRILLIONS in damage so fossil fuel companies can make billions in profits. 💸💸💸

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about. What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars. We're paying for the torture of children. I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

NOAA cut funding to the Alaska Earthquake Center, directed by my friend Mike West. As a result, seismic monitoring by nine stations in Alaska tracking tsunami-causing earthquakes will go offline by the end of the month. This endangers people in Alaska, Hawaiʻi, and other parts of the Pacific.

Preparing a talk on being resilient in the face of shitfuckery I thought I would share one on my slides 😁

There's this form of behavioral engineering/coercion going on to use AI when you're not even trying to. Ex: Enterprise Google Slides replaced "Upload an Image", with "Generate an Image" (right?), requiring extra work +adaptation to sidestep the AI-as-default push. It drives me bonkers.

Love the phrases "Cognitive Cost" and "Executive Function Theft" to pinpoint how exhausting it is to be constantly bombarded with apps telling you to use AI. I've been calling it "Corporate pressure" and "Force feeding". It's quite a lot right now. Seems a bit desperate tbh.

This is Murujuga National Park, site of the largest collection of rock art carvings in the world. The oldest depiction of a human face anywhere in the world is HERE. The LATEST dated specimens here are hundreds of years older than the Pyramids. This is Gondwanalands history, encapsulated.🧵

"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...

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.'"

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. 🧵
