“Australia is the world’s third-largest fossil fuel exporter, and its outsized role in the climate crisis calls for serious action. Every shipment of coal that leaves this port contributes to more devastating bushfires, floods and cyclones.” #RisingTide

Some of the #RisingTide champions arrested are out of police custody and ready for more climate action 💚 We've asked 'nicely' for decades. Disobeying institutions that abuse power to deliberately harm those less powerful is a vital tenant of a healthy democracy.

Mina Bui Jones is a resident of the Hunter Valley region that is overly reliant on the boom and bust of coal prices. She was arrested this afternoon with #RisingTide, demanding a 78% tax on coal exports to help fund a just transition away from the dangerous fossil fuel economy 💚

Jonathon Dykyj originated from Central Queensland and knows first hand the boom and bust impact on communities from their rover-reliance on coal and gas. He's now a local Newcastle parent and was one of the swimmers arrested at #RisingTide this afternoon. Thanks Jono!

This is civil disobedience‼️ We've asked 'nicely' for decades. Disobeying institutions that abuse power to deliberately harm those less powerful is a vital tenant of a healthy democracy. There is still time to join is at #RisingTide 👇🏽

3,000+ registered. 7,000+ expected this weekend.

The NSW government has declared a marine exclusion zone, but the People's Blockade is going ahead.

🚨 In Newcastle today, Rising Tide painted “TAX ME” on a coal ship named Climate Justice, calling for a 78% fossil fuel profits tax to fund a just transition for workers + communities. Australia’s biggest polluters pay less tax than nurses.
