Wake up time

An estimated 60,000 people take to London streets to demand a better deal for nature @RNNMarch

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

There were lots of excellent chants today, but my favourite chant from today: the simple & heartfelt “More birds, more trees” conveys beautifully what so many of us yearn for & demand

Spot on David Pocock! everyone should be listening and spreading this

[David Pocock @DavidPocock]

Gas companies are getting away with state-sanctioned daylight robbery.

The value in Australian gas should be used to build a better future for Australians, not to inflate the profits of multinationals.

[Gill Burrows @gillbu2]

Time to recognise what S going on and rise up

[Gill Burrows @gillbu2]

Always learning something new from the Nannas

[Knitting Nannas and Friends - Sydney @knitnannasSYD]

It doesn’t get much more ‘nanna’ than making battery parts out of used hair and wool! Clean industries are clear winners from the Budget, and whale numbers are blowing research estimates out of the water! https://t.co/xmv1allIes

Hey ⁦⁦@AustralianLabor⁩ don’t expect any scones from us Knitting Nannas Against Gas anytime soon.

[Gill Burrows @gillbu2]

Trust the nannas, they're out working for the kiddies

[Knitting Nannas and Friends - Sydney @knitnannasSYD]

Bunch of soggy Knitting Nannas converge on Kirribilli House to tell @AlboMP that we are the @RisingTideAus for our kids and grandkids.

We deserve a safe home and environment but #fossil fuel companies fan the flames of #ClimateBoiling and #Floods

Time we all said no to spending 368 billion on AUKUS and increasing militarization. There are important domestic needs. The arms producers must be delighted with all this increased spending on their products. One wonders if there is a link between militarization and DV

Anyone for a spot of species extinction hopscotch?

Outside Coffs Harbour Forestry Corporation Coffs Harbour 🧶👵 👵land hard on those ignoring the science while exercising and protesting.

Talk about multi- tasking!

Neocolonialism - this time by US. Australia is the being taken over to become the US forward guard in the Pacific.

[Rex Patrick @MrRexPatrick]

The decision has been made and then hidden in plain sight in the glossy brochures released this week by Defense Minister @RichardMarlesMP - The ADF is to be specifically configured as an element of US forces to fight a possible war against China. #auspol https://t.co/jt0XsY3lwK

[Gill Burrows @gillbu2]

Yes there is good news thanks nannas

[Knitting Nannas and Friends - Sydney @knitnannasSYD]

Qld puts 75% cut in emissions into law, and gas rebates are out in Vic. And with our glasses firmly half-full, Plibersek’s national EPA is good news. https://t.co/6ek0UfWeE6

Phil Coorey in AFR 19/4: WA calls the environment shots while EPBC Act fails our environment needs. WA votes needed for ALP re-election, so reforms delayed. We get Future Made in Australia with critical minerals spruiked instead.

A BIG NO to Glencore polluting the GAB is unthinkable

[Darriea Turley AM @CrDarrieaTurley]

#Narrabri you can start voting tomorrow! I went door knocking in Narrabri and loved speaking to all of you! Labor has committed to stopping the Narrabri Gas Project and can’t be intimidated by Santos!
No to CSG! #Savethegab #pilligarising #nswvotes #labor #noCSG
