Days after @WoodsideEnergy said its "long history of operating excellence" made it a suitable operator for the ageing Bass Strait, regulator @nopsema slammed it for a string of safety and environmental incidents on three bungled decommissioning jobs.

In a new perspective, we argue that conservation must focus on PROCESS as well as species (think ecological functions, ecosystem integrity, diversity, movement). International policy is ready for this, but necessary datasets & mechanisms need investment https://t.co/BK8EsKlYfW
Dr Ken Mulvaney thought that once people realised how important the rock art was, there would be no more industrial development at Murujuga.
Instead he's seen 5 new developments being built, creating acidic emissions that are slowly destroying the rock art.

Labor promised to end the climate wars.
With its decision today to approve Australia’s largest gas project, we see that its promises are worth nothing.
This decision locks in massive carbon emissions until at least 2070, undermining our climate targets.
It’s a betrayal of our young people and our future generations.

UN set to reject World Heritage listing for Murujuga rock art. Wants polluters like @WoodsideEnergy's North West Shelf plant removed. Breaking news.

We’ve always had cyclones, but climate change is making them worse. We hear today that Cyclone Alfred cost us $1.2bn - mitigation and adaptation makes economic sense. This is not an issue that’s going away. #auspol

There is rightly a lot of focus on the problem of Western Australia’s gas exports. I want to focus on the solution: WA could be a global clean energy leader, given our exceptional solar + wind + mineral resources. Let’s forge that path, which necessitates a transition out of gas.
US miner @Alcoa can secretly and illegally pump PFAS-contaminated water over a drinking water dam in a poorly built pipeline and escape consequences. Only in Western Australia, where miners come before citizens.

With both of WA's major parties in favour of opening new gas basins to feed LNG export hubs, one has to ask, why?
WA gets bugger all from the gas industry. People paying vehicle rego fees contribute twice as much to state revenue than gas royalties. 🤔
