One year on from the devastating floods, our hearts go out to all those still struggling. We must take action to protect our communities and work towards reducing emissions 💚

MEDIA RELEASE: After years of floods and heavy rains, Australian authorities should prepare for widespread grass fires on a scale never-before experienced, the Climate Council and Emergency Leaders for Climate Action (ELCA) have warned.

In excellent news for your morning, bushfire survivors are challenging the expansion of the Narrabri coal mine.

"Approving new mines is adding to the problem & making the solution and emissions reduction targets even harder to achieve." https://t.co/gI5Kk1uQpZ

Today is expected to be the last day of the hearing as we challenge the
@IPC_NSW's decision to approve Whitehaven Coal's massive new extension in Narrabri. Jo Dodds, a bushfire survivor, provides a personal update of how she is feeling this morning heading into court.

[Bushfire Survivors for Climate Action @BSCA_Aus]

We expect our governments and regulators like
@IPC_NSW to keep us safe from worsening climate change. Approving @WhitehavenCoal's massive new extension in Narrabri will fuel worse bushfires. We are in court this week, challenging the approval.

Thanks to @EDOLawyers

We’re arguing that it’s UNREASONABLE to permit the expansion of the Whitehaven #Narrabri Coal mine because emissions are creating climate change-fuelled bushfires which are destroying homes & communities. @BSCA_Aus

[cfa_updates @CFA_Updates]

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the Ash Wednesday bushfires. We take time to pause and reflect on the incredible courage, strength and bravery shown by all our CFA members, their families and the community.

Tomorrow we go to the Land & Environment Court to challenge Whitehaven’s proposed expansion of their Narrabri coal mine. Send us strength! @BSCA_Aus

[Bushfire Survivors for Climate Action @BSCA_Aus]

Bushfire survivors know first-hand the impacts of climate change. Today we've taken the NSW @IPC_NSW to the NSW Land and Environment Court, for approving the Whitehaven’s Narrabri coal mine expansion. The hearing will runs 15-17 Feb. Follow for updates.

Thanks to @EDOLawyers

Multiple #heatwaves across Eurasia and Asia are happening concurrently. The #UK set to reach 40°C. #Wildfires across southern #Europe killing and destroying lives. Consistently high temperatures (~37°C) and humidity (~70%) in #Taiwan. This is unsustainable. #ClimateCrisis @NASA

'Panic and despair'. 'Red nightmare'. 'Out of control'. 'Hell'. Words from across the globe describing our beautiful planet as it burns. #ClimateChaos 🔥🔥🔥
