25.01.2022 I would rather that we were a renewables super power! Australia is now the biggest exporter of fossil fuels and our exported (scope 3) emissions are now larger than those of Germany! See the new report by UNSW's Climate Justice Project on what the latest govt figures on our #coal, #oil & #gas exports show. #climate #coal #gas @profjeremymoss https://thenewdaily.com.au//09/australia-export-fossil-fu/ https://climatejustice.co//new-report-australia-an-emissi/

21.01.2022 Some progress! Denmark has set up a peoples climate council and found a way to make new (fairly) tough emissions reductions commitments (70% cut by 2030) - enforceable even through a later change of government. Quote: Denmarks law likewise aims to ensure all policies support green sustainable development. It establishes a standing committee on green transformation to screen the sustainability of all policies, says Jørgensen. We see this as a transformation of the Dani...sh society thats so big that its not just my ministry, its all ministries, including the foreign affairs ministry, he adds. They are also responsible for the global strategy that needs to be put forward every year. Denmark is also making efforts to include businesses and the public in its plans. A public climate council of 99 people will be invited to discuss potential climate plans. Thirteen climate partnerships, each led by a different sector, were tasked with coming up with solutions to reduce emissions in their industry. So actually, [the government] have put the private sector to the test, but are also saying on the other hand that the private sector really wants to be put to the test, says Qvist-Sørensen.

21.01.2022 Important callout for solidarity: The Wangan and Jagalingou Peoples have just given Adani a notice of eviction and are asking people to share this video with t...he hashtags #StandingOurGround and #EvictAdani Video here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/ New website here: https://standing-our-ground.org/ Solidarity guide: https://docs.google.com//14U-DXdoxpPqVddaxtfbujouRaV/edit

12.01.2022 Great show last night. What was your favourite moment?

06.01.2022 Some great talks coming up!

06.01.2022 Its high time Australia had a levy on fossil fuel exports. The big companies that profit from climate wrecking exports of coal, gas and oil should help pay for the devastation caused by the resulting bushfire infernos and floods.

04.01.2022 BREAKING: We, the Wangan and Jagalingou tribal warriors have re-established control of access to our Country leading to the Adani Carmichael Coal Mine site to e...nforce protection of our home lands. We are #StandingOurGround to evict Adani and end the desecration of our homelands. We will remain on country to enforce the eviction notice that we issued to Adani last week. Soon, Adani will start draining the water table and digging their mine, causing irreversible damage to our lands, our sites and our sacred Doongmabulla Springs. They have given us no choice but to take urgent action to protect water, defend our Country and maintain our right to preserve and practice our culture. We have been fighting against Adanis Carmichael project for 10 years, it is our duty to continue. We demand Adani Australia abandon their Carmichael mine project immediately. #StandingOurGround #EvictAdani

04.01.2022 DCAN has thrown its support behind Mayor Susan Rennie and called on the Premier Daniel Andrews to put an immediate halt to single member wards following recent revelations about the conduct of former minister for Local Government, Mr Adem Somyurek.
