Wow. Australia's Treasurer @jimchalmers.bsky.social invites Woodside as one of select few participants in the Economic Roundtable where he intends to reconfigure our economy and tax system. This is the Woodside that pays almost no tax and gets royalty free gas as a result of their lobbying. 🤯

Eeeww. Days over 35C could double in our suburb of Marrickville @albomp.bsky.social. That's nothing compared to North Qld & Northern Territory -- they face half the year in sweltering above 35C temps.

Time to #EndCoal and #StopGas to limit killer temps.

Wow. What a graph. Climate impacts are heavily skewed to Global South countries, incl Vanuatu & Philippines from our region in top 10 for the decade. But rich countries also make a showing with big climate impacts.

Wow. Australia's superannuation tax concessions cost more than schools, unemployment benefits, medicines, aged care or the NDIS. And they overwhelmingly go to the rich.

REACTION to #COP29 climate finance agreement.

"The $300 billion so-called ‘deal’ that poorer countries have been bullied into accepting is unserious and dangerous," said @Oxfam's Nafkote Dabi.

Each morning at #COP29 the names of the people Israel has killed in Gaza are being read out. After 10 days of reading they are up to the 12 year olds.

#freePalestine #standwithGaza

Time to make #polluterspay for #lossanddamage from #climatedisasters. #PayUp #COP29

Launching into week 2 at #COP29 with #climatefinance goal deadlocked but still all to play for. Key pieces:
- quantum of $1.3 trillion
- #LossAndDamage included in the #NCQG
- core #climate finance goal should be grants not greedy loans & bogus private finance

Here’s for a #climatejustice outcome!

#MakePollutersPay at #COP29. #Fossilfuel executives out #climatejustice in.

Time for #COP29 to agree an ambitious #climatefinance goal and ensure #polluterspay for #climatedamage not communities on the frontline of climate impacts.
