This is quite eye-opening to me anyways... temperatures averaged over land areas so far this year are statistically tied for the warmest on record!

When will Australia stop approving new fossil fuel projects?

Pacific Elders have penned an open letter to our Prime Minister and Opposition Leader in the Canberra Times.

"Australia’s fossil fuel project approvals undermine the survival & security of Pacific Island communities." #auspol

We're lucky to live in a country with drinkable clean tap water. No need to ship bottled water across the globe and all the damage that causes.
Before choosing bottled water over tap water, remember it takes more than 10X the water that a bottle of water holds to make the plastic bottle and transport the water. And that’s before considering the fuel and GHGs, the 1000 year bottle life, and the RIDICULOUS amount of $ we’re paying for water.

The North West Shelf expansion approved by WA Premier Roger Cook will create emissions equivalent to 25x that of WA's largest coal power station.

25 new coal power stations would be considered unacceptable, and so should this decision.

Climate data from @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social shows, it is virtual certainty that 2024 will be the warmest year on record and the first calendar year above 1.5°C.
This does not mean the Paris Agreement has been breached, it means ambitious #climateaction is more urgent than ever
