We tracked down photos of 3 🧶👵’s, a clown (+driver) being pursued by police on Newcastle Harbour on Saturday. Nannas were finally arrested but released without charge.
Not everyone is in a position to take direct action - but we can all spread the word #ClimateAction now!

Santos hit by further delay on Narrabri gas ruling
A traditional owner appeal over the project’s approval was due to start on Tuesday but is now expected in March 2026 after the judge recused herself.

worse than expected COP30 outcome - No roadmap, no mention of the f words. Good the 80 states have split to make a roadmap in April.
On the last official day of #COP30 climate talks, countries are divided on whether to commit to phasing out fossil fuels. Vanuatu's minister for climate change says big polluters like Saudi Arabia are obstructing action despite "scientific clarity" on the need to transition to clean energy.

Planning law reform should be about listening to climate science, not the mining lobbyists Chris Minns
A change to ourNSW Planning system is being rushed through Parliament by Minns Gov with keen Coalition support as a ‘Planning System Reform Bill’ supposedly aimed to speed up housing approvals. They say. But it is widely pro-development of roads, mines & infrastructure.

The strong uptake of solar energy by home owners was celebrated yesterday by Solar Citizens at Wolli Creek on Sun Day. They say we now need governments to focus on making the benefits of clean cheap energy available to people who rent and people who live in apartments. A fair go for the climate too.

David Pocock MP: Setting emissions target without releasing the National Climate Risk Assessment is “going on a journey without a map”. How to plan the journey when you don’t know where you’re headed? How to assess the effectiveness of policy if we don’t know what needs to be addressed? #auspol
