@GlenKellySWWA gave a stunning address on the marginalising of indigenous knowledge. Followed by Steve van Leeuwen. Impressive progress being made. #DanjooKoorliny

At #DanjooKoorliny this morning. Inspiring presentation from The Indigenous Desert Alliance.

You wouldn’t believe what we used to run our cars on in the old days..

@bradpettitt Indeed - funny but basically a documentary!

This article sums up many of my feelings about the hydrogen distraction. It's from the east but largely applies to WA.

Another small but important correction a long time coming. This was always a badly inappropriate setting for a government funded program, which preyed on Principals who couldn't resource a school councilor. https://t.co/97kCL8R9JW

@bradpettitt I’m not ready to subscribe but it feels like there’s a genuine sense of humanity returning..

@timinclimate Thanks Tim. Excellent work. If we do go to the trouble of making green hydrogen, then we’ll find many high value, game changing uses for it before we waste it on cooking dinner. Electric homes already have a better way of doing that.

@KevinVizzutti @Committee4Syd Interesting that it only gets down to 50% of dwellings giving up a car even with exceptional public transport. If I’m reading this correctly.

On Youth Day @COP26 I’m on my way to a youth climate countdown event by @tedxkp in Perth WA.

“We must be at the centre of decisions that happen here.”

On Youth Day at #COP26, we look back at a week where young people have made their voices heard in the Blue Zone and beyond.

Today and everyday, we hear their call for #ClimateAction.

@bradpettitt Great to see this leadership. In this case it’s leadership in the parliament - the vast majority people seem to have been ready for action on addressing the causes of climate change for a long time now!

[Brad Pettitt @bradpettitt]

Today I’m introducing legislation that aims to raise WA’s climate ambition so it’s consistent with the science. Clear targets for this decade are necessary. Greens MP Brad Pettitt introduce emissions bill, as Labor rejects 'blunt instrument' - ABC News https://t.co/NE6U36Czzm
