"The Labor Party's election campaign in 2022 boasted climate commitments and intentions to restore Australia's relationships and reputation with our Pacific "brothers and sisters".

Australia is showing no signs of a #climate course correction," writes @lizmorison.bsky.social #auspol

In 2023 the govt "improved" the Safeguard Mechanism because, as Tanya Plibersek noted, "the safeguard mechanism is the way that we deal with carbon emissions in this country".

And yet the projected emissions from industry are now higher than they were last year.

Love that improvement!

The latest greenhouse gas emissions figures show Australia emits more gas now than when the government was elected.

But the govt wants us to believe we are "on target" to achieve 43% cuts below 2005 levels by 2030.

Enough with the spin: we need to stop approving new coal & gas mines *now*.
