PR firms are spreading climate misinformation on behalf of fossil fuel companies. Could Australia stop them?
This week, Australian policymakers heard about the real and growing problem of climate misinformation. Stopping it would mean regulating the PR industry.

The devastating algal bloom in SA is another dimension of the climate crisis.
A climate damage compensation levy on coal and gas exports could raise billions of dollars every year to pay the costs of climate change, without raising prices in Australia.

Many have been glad to hear that NSW is finally stopping logging in the long-proposed Great Koala National Park.
But in the fine print, the park's creation is "dependent on the successful registration of a carbon project."
It's a perverse incentive that has enabled years of habitat destruction. 👇
