This is disgusting - The relevant quote that was excluded from the report is '“The answer for the problems of energy security in our communities is not gas but solar energy which is free, plentiful and does not cause further damage to the climate.'

As we increase the number of homes in our cities, how we should do that is again in the spotlight.
Watch ABC News talk to Biodiversity Council 's Sarah Bekessy ICON Science RMIT RMIT University about how we can approach development to create liveable cities that are better for people as well as nature.…

There are other options indeed, how are we supposed to have no new extinctions like this?

In Norway they tax their fossil fuel industry properly and give kids free university education, but here in Australia we subsidise the fossil fuel industry and charge kids a fortune to go to uni. Budgets are all about choices #auspol #insiders abc.net.au/news/2024-03-0…

Hello World,

Imagine having a culturally significant site within a major city, dearly loved by the community, that had world-class birdwatching & nature-based tourism potential.

Well, our Environment Minister, Tanya Plibersek, approved its destruction!

I find this so incredibly galling - the same companies who we fought against and ‘won’ with cigarettes are back targeting teens with vapes in the exact same way. I really don’t know how they sleep at night

This morning I lay witness to perhaps 20% of the entire Swift Parrot population.

Thrill and despair in the same scene. To think they could be extinct within a decade.

We need to do more. Their value is greater than that of harvested timber.

1/2 Well this article made my day! First attempt to model whether humanity has any chance of getting to a safe and just operating space - where humanity's needs are met without breaching any planetary boundaries. Drumroll... the answer is... yes. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Last year Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek marched for The Voice in Redfern.

Now she’s ignoring First Nations pleas as bulldozers rip through 110 hectares of endangered species habitat at Lee Point Darwin.

Call her on 02-62777920 and 02-93790700 to say enough’s enough.

We are walking with the Traditional Owners of Evelyn Downs to develop relationships and support their aspirations for Country.

Except in cases where offset ‘credits’ are paid upfront b4 proj impacts are permitted, most scenarios involve immediate & certain biodiv losses in exchange for uncertain, future gains

Many risks are foreseeable👇but Annica Schoo (ACF)'s🧵shows the infinite regress of responsibility
