16.01.2022 yesterday! The resistance continues.
13.01.2022 "Plotting NSWs transition away from coal will be the subject of a parliamentary inquiry, including how the state can make the most of renewable energy supplies...." "The inquiry will also look into the impacts on regional communities from the current energy system. These will include the effects coal-fired power have on water supplies in a drought and the sectors wider impact on the environment and public health." As the scientific and medical communities are increasingly aware of the health impacts of fossil fuels (and of coal in particular), the NSW inquiry needs to take these public health risks seriously. New coal is fundamentally incompatible with a warming world, and is harmful to our climate and our health.

03.01.2022 Banks arent walking the talk on climate action. 33 global banks financed fossil fuels with $1.9 trillion since the Paris Agreement was adopted, led by JPMorga...n Chase, the worlds biggest banker of climate change by a wide margin. This is dangerously at odds with the steep cuts to emissions we need in order to keep the worlds warming to 1.5C, according to last years IPCC report. This 10th annual bank report card, "Banking on climate action" was published by Rainforest Action Network, BankTrack, Indigenous Environmental Network, Sierra Club, Oil Change International and Honor the Earth, and endorsed by more than 160 organizations around the world. This report focuses on the US. I wonder how Australian banks compare? Read more: https://www.ran.org/bankingonclimatechange2019/
