Trying to do my bit by pressuring our ACT federal politicians to do better. The legal concept of transboundary climate harms is my new weapon.

OKAY BIG ONE FOR YA

NEW report out today: I dig deep into how big tech has been muddling tech types and overstating evidence to claim "AI" will make global emissions drop like a stone....

"Liberal Party values are Australian values".
That's a direct quote from Jane Hume while she was in the Morrison Government.
But when you look at what the Liberal Party actually DOES when in power, its ACTUAL values are clear.
May these never become Australia's actual values.

LNP and Gas shills: yeah but what if we count the company tax of gas companies??!!!!

"among those wielding the darkest power, chaos and collapse is not something they fear but rather aim to create. Brexit debate, Trump, the Voice referendum, climate change, Israel’s genocide, and many other events involve one side which actively desires collapse – and is ready to profit from it."
