Also worth reading in conjunction with another story I published last year where the founding chair of the organisation today known as Australian Energy Producers was aware that burning oil, gas and coal had the potential to alter the climate in 1969.
What the gas giants knew all along
The risks to the climate of rising carbon dioxide emissions, and the role of fossil fuels, were recognised by the founding chair of Australia’s leading industry group more than 50 years ago.

I’ve no idea but while reading this my thoughts were solely focused on why it’s so important to keep voting Independents into our Parliament! Indies are backed by their communities…but god only knows what ‘questionable’ factional deals lurk behind ALP preselections!

The coalition failed the teals not only because they failed to pre-select women in winnable seats but they also had the wrong policies for them.

I am sick of people thinking Independents would be Liberals. You can tell the fundamental difference by the tables they meet around.

Indies meet at kitchen & cafe tables to discuss how to help constituents.

Liberals meet at board room tables to be told how to benefit corporates.

We can count a litany of male centered films. I’m really not trying to be argumentative. I want people to understand how hard this world, despite all our progress, is on women.

The reason that UK wholesale power prices are linked at the hip to wholesale gas prices is that gas sets the wholesale price of power 98% time – vs just 7% of time in FR

(This due to "marginal pricing", used in most power and commodity markets)

Absolutely right Helen. The LNP moan about loosing farm land to renewables. What a load of shit!
You can have both. You can’t if you’ve got a huge pit in the ground.

One of the definitions of the word mandate is ‘the authority to carry out a policy, regarded as given by the electorate to a party or candidate that wins an election’ so, no Dave, you don’t have a mandate.
