We need to pay attention to my distinguished colleague, Dr. Schellnhuber, when it comes to the catastrophic hazards of climate breakdown. He is a world leading authority on climate change. It is time for all hands on deck. #ClimateCollapse
We will all, sooner or later, be badly affected by climate change and nature destruction, and we will all, eventually, get serious about them
But if we leave it till then it will be too late
Without making drastic changes to our lives…
ALL of us can give up meat & dairy.
MOST of us can give up flying.
LOTS of us can give up driving.
The world ain’t gonna change unless we change.
The climate crisis isn’t just coming, it’s here and hit my state hard last night. The cost of not doing anything is far greater than the cost of taking bold action now. https://t.co/Szbk7JQCor
It's time for the government to start telling the truth about how far away we are from where we need to be in this decisive decade.
In the Budget and the days ahead, the Prime Minister and government must step up to make COP26 the summit of climate delivery, not climate delay.
Happening right now - the Morrison Government has just voted against Zali Steggall's motion to debate legislation on climate targets and action.
As always with this Government, they're happy to publish a glossy pamphlet but real action? Nothing to see here.
PM thinks that ‘Australian way’ is do nothing really, keep emitting & hope that technology & the rest of the world will sort out 50% of emission reductions …no 2030 target, nothing legislated &eventually they will release the modelling! PM calls this an ‘authentic plan’🤨#auspol
Gaslighting on Aus climate policy in full flight in #qt today by PM and Minister for Delaying Emissions Reduction. It’s a farce & every MP is complicit. PM keeps yelling as if it will make any of it any more believable.😵💫So much $ opportunity at stake! 😑#auspol#ClimateAction
Some MPs being described as ‘climate deniers’ or that they are holding Govt policy to ransom was offensive. My bad. But complete failure to answer, all good 🙃 It’s clear the Nats are the most powerful votes in the Coalition on climate policy. #auspol#qt

If you want to study the *tricky accounting* on emissions by Federal LNP govts over the last 30 years, here it is.
Howard started it.
Tony Abbott continued it.
And the Morrison Govt mantra was 'Paris-in-a-Canter' last election lead-up.
You decide.
