Amy Remeikis on Gough:
Lost in that analysis, and the lessons not learnt, is that we have his legacy because he didn’t bend. Because he knew that to compromise, to give in, would mean nothing ever changed.

Where’s nature positive? Australia must ensure environment reforms work to restore what’s been lost
Australia is among many countries working to protect and restore nature at scale. But long-awaited environmental law reforms won’t help much as they stand.

A new report from @oilchange.bsky.social reveals that while most of the world has cut back on fossil fuel production since the Paris Agreement, four Global North countries (the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Norway) have increased oil and gas output by nearly 40%.

I live in a fossil fuel export town and yet we watch billions of exports sail past while we have underfunded hospitals and schools and rising inequality. It’s shameful.
Australia is one of the richest countries in the world, yet our tax system is delivering underfunded services and growing inequality.

Making giant gas companies and millionaires pay their fair share would be a step towards a better Australia.

Go figure. Alberta sets aside $14 million for a “hypothetical”pipeline but there’s no money for our overcrowded classrooms or overworked teachers.

The eye of Hurricane Melissa still hasn't made landfall in Jamaica. It's just been sitting there, hammering the island, for days now.

At 2:00 pm today, the eye will STILL be over Jamaica.

She won't even reach Cuba until 2 pm TOMORROW.

She's moving forward at about 3 mph, which is incredibly slow.

It's OCTOBER! That's FIFTEEN DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE!
