[Michael Nolan @michael_nolan23]

Good to see Ashwood CAN up and about. Looking forward to seeing the Ashwood Climate score card.
The quicker we elect Climate friendly candidates, the quicker we sort the extreme Climate changes.

Victoria signals end of coal by announcing a new 95% renewable target. It's a risky but vital move https://t.co/rPqgSBKfxj via @ConversationEDU

[Renew Economy @renew_economy]

Victoria says it couldn't "sit around" waiting for #coal plants to close, and insists state government ownership of energy will ensure profits kept in the state https://t.co/bHG1kHYEyQ #auspol

👇 old growth logging is obscene.

Seems reasonable to be alarmed and backing rapid uptake of solutions.

@AusConservation @Mon4Kooyong @michrajah Thanks to these busy MPs for taking the time to see first hand the reprehensible waste and destruction of precious habitat caused by native forest logging in Victoria. 2030 is too late. We need to stop native forest logging now.

[Australian Conservation Foundation @AusConservation]

A message to politicians: this is why we need strong nature laws 💔

Thank you @Mon4Kooyong and @michrajah for joining our latest tour of the Toolangi State Forest to see firsthand the devastation of native logging.

Next step: EPBC Act reform.

Reducing native forest logging would not only be good for emissions reductions but would also help reduce the risk of "catastrophic bushfires", says Professor David Lindenmayer from @ANUFennerSchool.

[Ashwood Climate Action Network @ActionAshwood]

Lets join the dots between climate and environmental decline which are a two way street. The State of the environment reports are telling us we are not doing well, we are not doing enough to respect the land or the people on the land. We can do better. All land and all people.

[Merri Action for Forests @merri_forests]

Last night 66 citizen scientists surveyed 6 forest areas across Victoria and found 60 endangered Greater Gliders (how obliging were the Gliders to fit in with our numerical theme!)

With the exception of Alberton, all of these forests are slated for logging.

[Friends of Bats and Habitat Gippsland @FriendsBats]

Last night 66 citizen scientists from community groups across Victoria took part in a coordinated big night of surveying for endangered Greater Gliders from Wombat State Forest, to the Central Highlands, all the way to East Gippsland! https://t.co/NVEw12FM2t

@ActionAshwood @ABCaustralia We’ve electrified everything at home. It is the path to zero emissions.
