Just an Aussie dad who cares about climate action. CEO for @climate_parents. Views are my own.

Parents for Climate CEO @NicSeton responds to Labor Party announcement that they will reduce household battery costs for families and businesses by one-third.

I’m proud to support @renewausforall. We have everything to gain.

"Last month, France’s spot electricity price went negative as cheap renewable energy flooded its power market... French officials shut down three nuclear reactors because their power could not compete against ultra-cheap renewables."

Energy, resources and finance experts agree: nuclear energy is a terrible idea for Australia. Our shift to clean energy is already under way, with 40% of the power in our main national grid coming from renewables. Quite simply: later is too late https://t.co/L3AnXk5ELV

I’m back on the bus to Canberra! And I’ve got the names of 500 Northern Territory @climate_parents with me.

I’m going to the Senate Inquiry into the Middle Arm Industrial Hub - a project that threatens our kids’ climate and safety (backed by a $1.5billion public subsidy!)

[Parents for Climate @climate_parents]

We are deeply disappointed by the Coalition policy announcement to reduce climate ambition in this critical decade for our kids’ future 😢

Getting on the bus to Canberra 🚌

I’m off to meet politicians from all sides about the need to make all homes & classrooms #climatesafe with clean energy solutions

Thanks to everyone who helps make @climate_parents a force for change

[Climate Council @climatecouncil]

60% of parents support the New Vehicle Efficiency Standard. @climate_parents CEO @NicSeton says: "Families deserve access to the same cleaner, cheaper-to-run vehicles manufacturers are sending to countries with fuel efficiency standards."

“If I had solar panels my costs would be lower, but that’s out of reach for me.”

Melbourne mum, Kirsty, gives voice to so many homes who can’t access bill-busting solar panels, on @ABC730.

You can read more about Kirsty’s experience in our report https://t.co/20VQL5hLMU

Stay safe out there today, Sydney ☀️🥵

[Nic Seton @NicSeton]

Check out this new analysis here. https://t.co/Z1ZOTzUoxg

[Nic Seton @NicSeton]

The highest retail petrol price I’ve ever seen 😰

And without a strong vehicle efficiency standard, Australian cars burn through it way faster at an average of 6.9L/100km.

EU average is 3.5L/100km
US average is 4.2L/100km

More efficient cars could halve Australians fuel bills

Do you TikTok? We've just posted our first ever video

It features @nicseton surveying dangerous temperatures at a local playground on a hot day.

Stay tuned for more. https://t.co/pgah0ccj5a

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

Today could be the hottest day in Australia's history, with temperatures up to 125°F (51.7°C) possible in Western Australia and potentially the highest temperature ever recorded in the Southern Hemisphere.

Just brutal extreme heat.

[Nic Seton @NicSeton]

Today’s health heat risk in South East QLD is “extreme”- ie a threat to everyone’s health.

Kids are more at risk (https://t.co/ZUPxFeO62y) so keeping them cool is a priority.

Be sure to take extra care to avoid prolonged heat exposure. (Readings via https://t.co/h02niRXOEL)

Here's the recording! https://t.co/H5X0v8PQKb

For all Earthkind! 🌏

A moving performance by hundreds of musicians, demonstrating community and courage.
It was shown this week at the Australian pavilion for Youth Day - Dec 8 - at #COP28

Wow.

As the UN Climate Talks kick off, I’m watching hundreds of musicians and singers of all ages create incredible song of hope “for all Earthkind” #4allEK

I’m here to invite all to get active on climate. The 12million parents around Australia have to hear this.

[John Gibbons 🇵🇸 @think_or_swim]

Superb #climate comms from the brilliant Olivia Colman.
Enjoy.

[Nic Seton @NicSeton]

I'm bummed to miss the @climatesalad #ClimateTech Festival in Sydney today (due to illness).

But I'm very grateful to Dr Harriet Fesq, @climate_parents board chair for joining in my stead.

With a packed bill and over 630tix sold, it should be an awesome day
