A minority Labor government (whether with Greens or independents) has long been the subject of intense scaremongering in the mainstream media and from the duopoly parties, which is perhaps the best reason to barrack for it.

Performance-fatalist accounts know very well that deadly, destructive catastrophes are the best moment to ply their trade: announcing they fossil fuels are inevitable, and that the only path forward is a perpetual state of helplessness and terror
Don't buy into the narrative, no matter how tempting

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
