I guess the impact of Woodside emissions on the future generations was not sufficient painful to satisfy her abusive soul, so she moved on to a bigger emitter.

Budgets are about priorities. The idea is to tax things you want less of & subsidise things you want more of

In Australia we spend $14 billion per year on fossil fuel subsidies & we are cutting science jobs at CSIRO…

As i said, budgets are about priorities #climate

thepoint.com.au/news/251127-...
If the Government's top priority is productivity, slashing the CSIRO budget does not make sense
Research and development is one of the major drivers of productivity and the CSIRO has a long track record of making productivity enhancing breakthroughs.

My take on the general idea of having for-profit companies involved in the field:
Letting Silicon Valley Geoengineer the Atmosphere Will End Badly
We already have plenty of evidence of what happens when things better left to governments — which in this case might decide to never flip the switch at all — are ceded to private industry.

Pretty remarkable how high Australia sits on the scale for lifestyle carbon emissions globally - and how little this gets mentioned in domestic climate discourse.

It's inconceivable to some that nice, middle-class professionals (possibly rather like themselves) could embrace neo-Nazi doctrines, but all that demonstrates is a deep unfamiliarity with & failure to take Nazism seriously.

At COPs, countries like Norway, Australia, the U.S. and Canada argue for high climate ambition. Back at home, they have collectively increased oil and gas production by 40% since Paris Agreement. This is why climate negotiation demands shouldn't be interpreted as action

I'm so delighted at HOW DELIGHTED people are that Monash Uni has dropped WoodCIDE

People LOVE this corrective action against a land-, ocean-Indigenous culture- & planet-destroying fossil fuel corp and I hope mainstream media puts out a big, illustrated story on it soon
It's just been confirmed that Monash University is dropping Woodside as a partner because they don't align with their sustainable values. This is an incredible win for @stopwoodsidemonash.bsky.social who have run a dedicated grass roots campaign for years.
