@DRTasCanB @elonmusk The rubble and burning horizon seem an appropriate vision,...😔

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

@elonmusk Just pay attention to the regulations that actually protect the biophysical world and a sustainable social structure,. like the environmental regulations Trump felt compelled to do away with last time,...!!

[Stephen Barlow @SteB777]

Those aware of the climate and ecological crisis, who are scientifically informed, are being made to feel like they have some weird cult like belief, despite their whole outlook, being based on the best possible science, available to humanity.

Remember the 'greenhouse effect"? Back when the science was not doubted and the causes well understood! #climatemisinformation

[Dr. Aaron Thierry @ThierryAaron]

We've emitted far more greenhouse gases since this reel was broadcast then in all of history before it.

The fossil fuel industry have fought to prevent #climate action every step of the way and continues to do so today.

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

If we want to take our democracy back from lobbyists (Zionist, Fossil Fuel), we need to take it back from the major parties that do their bidding first #Independents #auspol24 #greens

[Jane Caro @JaneCaro]

This is excellent.

@punterspolitix Love your work bro, just wish it wasn't necessary 🙏❤️

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

@punterspolitix love your work!!🙏❤️So can you do ALP climate policy (i.e. the 'Safeguard Mechanism'), submarines, and political party gaming of our democracy next??

[Punter's Politics @punterspolitix]

And the SCAM continues! We have the most expensive gas in the world... Yet export the most. You really can't make this stuff up... Because the captured polieshave already rigged the rules in favour of their gas mates and against we the punters! #australia #auspol

@westaustralian Wow the bots and ignoramus denialists are firing strong on this one, obviously don't want the thin edge of the reality wedge breaking the illusion that dominant economic paradigm trumps physics and thermodynamics. There's gonna be tears,... #globalheating

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

Maybe we should treat it like a war and 'fight' it then? (PS maybe the 100s billions we're planning to spend on submarines could be better spent eleswhere?)
FFS humanity do we actually care what future our kids face?? #climatecrisis https://t.co/e2vAB4BypW

When Albo @AlboMP said he'd "end the climate wars" we didn't realise he planned to do it by surrendering to the gas industry!!
Vote Independent or Greens for Science Based Climate Policy - Your children's future depends on it!! #Climatecrisis #Auspol https://t.co/218kipiVNw

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

The ALP must not receive the vote of any climate concerned Australian. Organise now to elect independents or Greens committed to science-based climate policy. Both major parties are owned by industry and are willing to condemn your children's future! #ClimateCrisis #Auspol

"This is a plan to expand the industry that's causing climate change, and we're greenwashing it and calling it a solution."

@simonahac Nice try @simonahac , unfortunately you're dealing with scientifically illiterate ignoramuses, that prefer their own 'facts', which are available courtesy of the Fossil Fuel Industry's $3 billion + investment in misinformation since the Paris accord #misinformation

[Alan Kohler @AlanKohler]

Re the Government's "A Future Made in Australia" thing: Climate change is cost, not benefit. The cheer-leading about winning the energy transition shouldn't disguise the fact that we’re trying to prevent a hellscape and might not succeed.

Ministry of misinformation "It also emerged the marine park authority has updated its climate change position statement to remove any reference to fossil fuels and the need for strong national action on climate change" https://t.co/tBemPeUiTK

@Karmageddon67 Thanx for drawing attention to this. In short, why aren't existing cleared areas being sought for these developments? Surely the 'solar resource' would be the same? Is it the ol mates, 'got a piece of land for you' scenario or is 'improved pasture' (=cleared) land more costly??

[💧Jim Tait @ICAN_NOW]

Don't look up,...... #ClimateEmergency

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Despite 2023 marking the hottest year on record, corporate broadcast news decreased climate coverage by 25%.

What the fuck. Is it just that they're owned by the billionaire class which prioritizes a docile ignorant public over a livable planet? Or do they simply not care
