Is the global media not talking about this, because the billionaires who control the narrative are still massively profiting from fossil fuels? Or they don't care - or both?

“If you’re starting to think GDP might not really capture what matters in life, you very much are not mistaken," writes Greg Jericho, Chief Economist at The Australia Institute. Read more 👇 https://theaus.in/4vnsSUY

This single shipload of electric vehicles from BYD will cut Australia's annual fuel demand by at least 6 million litres This is what genuine fuel security looks like - not tanks of diesel and rushed trade deals, but cutting our exposure permanently to overseas fossil fuel supply.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

The climate has ALREADY changed. This is no longer about climate change. It's about climate crisis.

Here's where we stand (via @climateactiontracker.org): climateactiontracker.org No longer headed towards 4C thanks to global decarbonization efforts. But current policies could give >3C-that's truly catastrophic, civilization-threatening levels of warming. That's why we need additional action.

By 2050, climate change could cost the global economy $38 trillion per year in damages. We are bankrupting the future to line the pockets of a few today. We have the solutions; what we lack is an industry willing to prioritize survival over surplus. 🛑📉

Terrible news, but hardly unexpected. We have to move away from fossil fuels, with great speed.

What a cool idea! Keep the pressure! @redactedreadingroom put all 3.5 million pages of the Epstein files bound together in 3,437 volumes of books, on display in a new exhibit in Tribeca. David Garrett, one of the organizers, says the goal is to push for the release of all of the files. #Pinks

I can‘t figure out why, but I have never seen news stories about how oil rigs hurt whales. Only wind farms do that. And only solar panels have a recycling problem. Gas stations are fine.

Sorry to mention climate change here but we're all scurrying around in a thin film of atmosphere shared between all of us and we shouldn't overheat the thing keeping us alive!!

China has more than 70% of all the high speed rail in the entire world. It installs more Renewable Energy than the rest of the world combined. It has some of lowest electricity and water prices in the world. All because China never privatised any of it.

Iran hasn’t placed a 100% tariff on our oil imports, yet we send our young men & women to fight and die on behalf of a paedophile in Washington who just slapped a 100% tariff on Australian medicines to try to break the PBS. Grow a set, or fuck off @albomp.bsky.social. America is our enemy. #Auspol

We possess the intelligence to heal the planet, yet we often act as conquerors determined to destroy it. The 21st century doesn't need more bombs; it needs better ideas. It's time to shift our focus from finding weaknesses in each other to finding strength in coexistence

One-third of all food produced rots before it reaches our plates — emitting more GHGs than the entire aviation industry. Cut waste. Compost. Eat local & seasonal. Every avoided kilogram of food waste = 2.5 kg less CO₂e. Your fridge is part of the climate fight. Use it wisely.

Brazil lost 1.8M hectares in 2024; Indonesia 200K. Global rate: 10M hectares/year. Ecocide fuels 12-15% of GHG emissions. Now: Rising temps. Future: Unlivable zones. Time to reforest & enforce laws! Who's with me? #StopEcocide

"Imagine: The Amazon holds over 3 million species, 390 billion trees, and stores 150-200 billion tons of carbon. The Congo Basin, Africa's lungs, supports 400+ mammal species and regulates regional rainfall. All given freely by nature. Now, driven by short-term greed, we risk erasing it forever.

🤣🤣

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented. They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed. That energy is all around us. It does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz or any other geopolitical chokepoint.

You’re meant to tax things you want less of & subsidise things you want more of. Yet Australian governments are handing out $16.3 billion in subsidies for fossil fuels. @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social & @elinorjohnstonleek.bsky.social discuss why on this episode of Dollars & Sense. 🎧 theaus.in/4bm3836

We should be taxing the fuckers into the ground. War profiteering used to be a bad thing… www.afr.com/companies/en...

Not paying tax, not employing Australians, wrecking our environment… what are you contributing @glencore? #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

It's time to change the language. Clearing an ancient forest isn't "land use" or "development." It's the permanent loss of a unique, irreplaceable life-support system. That has a name: #Ecocide.

"The average mortgage pays $200,000 in profit over its life to the banks," says Richard Denniss, co-CEO at The Australia Institute. You can read more on good ideas for economic reform here: https://thepoint.com.au/opinions/251113-genuine-economic-reform-is-long-overdue

We often think of trees when we think of forest carbon, but look down. 👇 Half of the roughly 771 billion tonnes stored in forests is held in the soil. Disturbing the forest floor means releasing this ancient carbon. Saving forests means saving their roots, their fungi, and their dirt.

"The resources underneath Australia belong to the people of Australia, not to the gas companies" - Nobel Prize-winning economist Professor Joseph Stiglitz. Listen to the full webinar here: https://australiainstitute.org.au/event/why-democracies-need-to-collect-more-corporate-tax/

In swap from fossil fuels to PV/ EVs/ clean tech, global total materials demand falls! 🤯 Using renewables means the world needs less materials Even EVs ~250kg extra metals in BEV VS ~35kg in ICE vehicle VS ICE car uses >20t lifetime fuel that's extracted, refined, burned VS recyclable battery

Climate tipping points threaten us all, but vulnerability is unequal. Poor nations/emissions-lowest suffer most. Elite “adaptation-only” talk (while resisting deep cuts) widens gaps. True fix: massive reforestation, regenerative farming, wealth redistribution for resilience. 🌿♻️ #SDG15

@albomp.bsky.social should never have invited this wretched monster to this country full stop what a f*ing disgrace #auspol #herzog

AUKUS is a political wedge from Scott Morrison so that Labor isn't seen as weak on security. We need to reconcile with Emmanuel Macron and buy a couple of his submarines, then invest in deployment of massive numbers of drones for coastal surveillance. And bank the billions in savings.

When even the Mathias Cormann-led OECD says the capital gains tax discount and negative gearing are a problem, you know Australia's housing market is really cooked. 🔥🏚️🏚️🔥 @grogsgamut.bsky.social @elinorjohnstonleek.bsky.social #auspol

950 days after the Murphy Report into gambling reform was released, the Albanese government hasn’t responded to a single one of its recommendations. Meanwhile, Australians lose almost $90 million every day to online gambling and pokies. It’s time to ban the advertising of online gambling.

How deftly they buried Australia's emissions data. @mrrexpatrick.bsky.social FOIs illuminate the govt's fossil fuels romance #auspol #climate michaelwest.com.au/someone-got-...

You know what happens to all the lithium in batteries when the batteries wear out decades in the future? It’s still there. It can be recycled. It’s mined once and used for decades over and over. It’s a durable resource Unlike petrol and diesel.

www.theguardian.com/environment/... The science is clear: “Academics from World Weather Attribution have already published an analysis that found the heatwave that blanketed much of Australia in early Jan was 5x more likely to occur now than before human-caused global heating changed the climate.”

A Biodiversity Crisis Forests are home to 80% of terrestrial biodiversity. Destroying them doesn't just remove trees; it triggers a silent extinction. Thriving under nature's laws means protecting these irreplaceable life networks. #Biodiversity Source: WWF
