Al Gore ripped the Trump administration to shreds in a speech Monday at a climate week event in San Francisco.

Today drilling for gas under the Barossa project off the coast of Darwin was approved. That's 274mil tones of emissions from one of the dirtiest gas projects in the 🌏 More than 100x emissions from the 🇦🇺 electricity system. Our approvals system is broken. We need urgent reform.

Search without AI. Reduce your carbon footprint and fight the techigarchy.

A population plan needs to take into account, not just our current resource limits, but likely future ones as well. The aim should be to achieve numbers of people where humans, wildlife, and natural systems can thrive. #auspol

Teals and Greens are under political attack from a new pro-fossil fuel, pro-Israel astroturfing group, adding to the onslaught by far-right lobbyists Advance Australia. Wendy Bacon and Yaakov Aharon with the story. michaelwest.com.au/labor-and-li....

🔥 NEW REPORT There is a strong connection between climate change and biodiversity loss. Both crises stem from a system that prioritises profit over people & the planet Explore our report : www.foei.org/publication/... #SystemChange #biodiversityloss #climatechange

What a crock

Wow! Russia’s US invasion is going way better than their Ukraine campaign.

Musk needs to resign from Tesla if he wants profit to increase. Just buy a boat and F off somewhere

From @davidfickling.bsky.social's latest Bloomberg piece: The petro majors are returning cash rather than invest in future production. "This shift suggests that oil and gas is now a sunset industry, managing a long-term, if occasionally profitable, decline." 🔌💡 www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Dirty. Even for fossil fuel project.

“Barossa is a massive climate bomb that will produce more climate pollution than usable gas.” Santos has received federal approval to commence production from its Barossa offshore gasfield off the coast of the Northern Territory. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

For fucks sake vote green or independent. End the fossil fuel duopoly in Australia. #auspol #lng #petrostate @australianlabor.bsky.social

🔴 Australia has just approved another massive new gas export project. The Barossa offshore gas project, operated by gas giant Santos, was today approved by NOPSEMA. Barossa is one of the most polluting gas projects under development in Aus and will pay no royalties on the gas it extracts. #auspol

At some point an Australian government is going to have to come clean and erase dodgy land use data. Our emissions reductions are a lie. #auspol #ausclimate #ausBS australiainstitute.org.au/post/lulucf-...

Harvard sues Trump administration over efforts to ‘gain control of academic decision-making’

Should farming emissions accounting include land use? Seems like it would be criminal not too. #landuse #farming #agzero

Google’s flight emissions estimates seem to be rubbish. As in underestimating by 2/3rds compared to other models. Can’t see thier AI emissions calculator 🙄

This is a lie, Peter Dutton. #Auspol Dutton says migration is a “significant contributor to young Australians [being] locked out of housing”. Migrants do NOT push up the price of housing. 🧵 Want the data?

Assholes

And hybrid ute buyers are finding out quickly that highway range is average. Meanwhile I just did 1600 kms in an EV with the family over Easter.

Australian Ute brain! I need to fit a lot of luggage for a 3 week trip. The rest of the time I am commuting. Should I by the vehicle that will be the shittest option for 90% of its use case?

So what? We keep burning fossil fuels to mask the heat caused by the burning of fossil fuels? This is all getting rather pear shaped. No one really has any idea wtf is going on .

Land use emissions are being under accounted by two thirds

It’s time to look at this with eyes wide open. A dramatic reduction of animal agriculture is required. Big ag has pulled off a wonderful con job thus far! #climatechange #farming

Really just incredibly horrifying to see these confirmations that gen z men are shifting towards abusive, violent and misogynist worldviews en masse. Lots of blame to go around but for me corporations like Spotify and Netflix helped this happen www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Protest march on Constitution Avenue against Trump now.

@skynewsau.bsky.social someone needs to create a block list including anyone who follows this account. Just punishment bsky.app/profile/skyn...

The future shaping election questions never to be asked: 🔥Will you declare a climate emergency? 🔥Will you ban new fossil fuel projects? 🔥Will you roll out an economy wide carbon tax? If they aren’t your top questions, you don’t understand climate breakdown. #auspol #climatechange

I really recommend encouraging people to check this out myplan.buildaballot.org.au

Major parties fail on the climate crisis: “It is monumentally disappointing that these issues are not really being discussed by either party.”

Local fire brigade thanks gas companies for their donations. This local fire brigade now has to protect gas assets approved by WA Labor from bush fires caused by burning fossil fuels. We could tax the said gas companies and no fire brigade would ever want again in Western Australia.

The Green's are bringing a suite of policies to the federal election to tamp down on greenwashing in a move welcomed by climate groups. Latest from me in @reneweconomy.com.au.

History shows every previous first home buyers scheme had boosted market values by more than the grant amount, senior economist @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social explained. ‘Useless at best harmful at worst’ claim economists assessing short to medium term impact of the major parties' housing policies ⤵️

It's perfectly legal to lie in a political ad in Australia. Companies can't lie about their products, so why can parties lie about their opponent's policies - or their own? Australia needs national truth in political advertising laws. @ebonybennett.bsky.social #auspol
