The feeling on the ground here in Belem is that Australia fell at the final hurdle, talking a good game right up to the bitter end when it failed to send anyone with authority to represent it at the start of COP30.

Some might say we gave it a good crack, but a failure would be convenient for some.
COP30 and the Paris Agreement
As governments meet for COP30 in Brazil, the debate about the continuance of fossil fuels as a worldwide energy source threatens the very heart of the Paris Agreement.

Comms Declare has written to the National Press Club #NPC asking that tomorrow’s talk by Future Coal Chief Executive, Michelle Manook be cancelled.

They declined, so we produced this handy bingo card to help viewers spot the climate obstruction and #greenwashing

The short answer is no. We’re around the middle of the pack, and a little further down the list after accounting for our relatively high incomes.
Are Australians really paying more for electricity than other countries?
Australia’s electricity prices have gone up a long way over the past decade or so, but global energy trends have also pushed up bills in other countries

The thing about elon going to epstein island in 2014 is that Epstein very publicly became a registered convicted sex offender in 2008, 6 years earlier.

Note: Epstein set up Elon's brother Kimbal with a girlfriend in 2011, 3 years after Epstein became a registered convicted sex offender.

The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right.

There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture

It contains 60,000 adult salmon.
Indoor salmon farming is championed as the future. Better for fish & the environment.

Saturday’s march through the streets of Belém, Brazil, was a contrast to the muzzling of dissent at past years’ U.N. summits.
