International pressure led to Adani vowing to cut ties with Myanmar's military junta in 2021. Now, leaked documents reveal how the resources giant had been privately negotiating coal ventures with the sanctioned regime leaders. https://t.co/dlUOsr4N3y

@abcnews More Sydneysiders sweated and struggled through the heat on construction sites and poorly insulated homes than the lucky few who spent it at the beach. Consider updating your style guide to use pictures that better reflect your headline?

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@abcnews Important coverage, given heatwaves are our country's deadliest natural disaster. Suggest updating the images you use to cover global heating - it's not a day at the beach for most people.

[Stop Adani @stopadani]

Just a thread of some of the bad news that has rocked #Adani’s climate-wrecking coal empire in the past 48 hours. #AdaniFPO #HindenburgReport

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@abcnews ABC, please get some better pics for these kinds of stories. A pic of the beach doesn't represent the reality for most Sydneysiders who are sweating through the night in the suburbs, many in poorly insulated homes without aircon

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@abcnews Big fan of your coverage @abcnews . Unfortunately these sweltering hot days aren't a day at the beach for most Sydneysiders. It's sweating in poorly insulated homes while WFH (me) or struggling with the heat on job sites. Pics of these conditions would better reflect reality

@NAB @TahbilkWinery This is really disingenuous NAB when you are financing Whitehaven Coal's expansion plans. You are completely undermining all your customers' efforts to go carbon neutral when you use their money to actively expand the fossil fuel industry. #notanotherdollar @MoveBeyondCoal

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@NAB @AFLAuskick Great stuff. It's been impossible to play sport the last few summers with the terrible bushfires and now flooding. NAB do you finance Whitehaven Coal and how is this consistent with your climate policy? #notanotherdollar

Emptying generations of peoples’ super into the pockets of existing homeowners will only accelerate growing inequality, inflate property prices further & bolster the insane, government-manipulated, pyramid-scheme plan for property prices to just grow & grow & grow forever

We wrote this in October. It was supposed to be a joke.

Sure everyone is losing it over Phil McCann reporting from the petrol station in the UK. But it pales in comparison to the best reporter placement in history

doctor at my check up asked me if i had “any feelings of depression or anxiety” and i said “don’t we all” and she said “no” lol

[Scott Morrison - Former PM of Australia (parody) @scottyfrommktg]

I would begrudgingly like to thank Kevin Rudd who has called Telstra on my behalf and negotiated a $30 discount on my phone plan

"The standard for the role has clearly been reset". Well said @newcastleherald It is now important that @Uni_Newcastle finds a chancellor who understands our future challenges rather than one who is tied to the past. @DocsEnvAus @jenhelenmar @p_hannam

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@DaveSharma I agree Dave. We must increase their budget so they have the capacity to enforce corporate policies. More ABC funding now! This is what you want!

[Mark Thompson @Marcusbaghdatis]

@keithjpitt It's almost as if the coal-fired power stations that failed today aren't very reliable...

Young people will be paying the bill of this Federal Budget for decades, whilst simultaneously living through the worsening impacts of climate change. We're on Parliament lawn calling on the Government to #FundOurFutureNotGas! #Budget2021
