UPDATE: The Commonwealth Games will now be hosted by Geelong Grammar, after the Victorian Government conceded it couldn’t afford the required investment in sporting facilities

Looking forward to this next week! #transformations

Now I'm no climate scientist, but it looks to me like we might have skipped over oops.

Breaking! 🚨The Government’s “Green Wall Street” policy is in tatters.

After a string of expert witnesses today who, like the Greens, raised fundamental concerns with the Nature Repair Market, the Govt has announced it will shelve the bill until at least the end of the year.

@megcevans @AuSenate @YungEnChee1 How did it go?

[Mae @MMBrussell]

No spoilers. Just sit down with someone and watch.

Then talk it through with your social circles.

Do we have to update the hashtag? #HighIntegrityNetZeroCredability

[Media Analyst @MediaAnalystOz]

This was not news

It was propaganda

To protect a premier who has now been found to be seriously corrupt

We demand a Murdoch Royal Commission to protect our country.

[Michael Dunlop @mtbsmile]

Yeah, but we should not forget that there is army of conservation scientists who have been selling this "innovation" for years, too.

@RDNS_TAI @TheAusInstitute Gosh, it’s almost as if listening to actual environmental and conservation experts might have been a far better approach.

[Greg Jericho @GrogsGamut]

The result of some great work by my colleagues at @TheAusInstitute.

I remember @pollyjhemming taking the economists through the PwC paper and we were like "wait... that.. is not how you do it... wait... no they didn't do that.. did they? Oh dear... they did"

Plus we know from our other FOI docs that the CER offered to 'fact check' CSIRO's submission, which ended up being very scant on the science front.

I am sure this is not the "Independent Review" @Bowenchris imagined for carbon credits.

New research from Norway highlights another benefit of union membership: because union members earn more, they pay more taxes & are less likely to need social welfare.

So when a worker joins their union, all taxpayers benefit https://t.co/ayBawtcJtN #auspol @unionsaustralia

Huge effort by Environment East Gippsland and Kinglake Friends of the Forests 🌳 in mounting an expensive and vital trial against the destruction of wildlife by logging. Today, the case was finally closed as VicForests failed in their appeal. Thank you team 👊🏽👏🏽♥️🌳

[Michael Dunlop @mtbsmile]

Everyone is a winner!!

Couldn’t possibly drop the stage 3 tax cuts tho. Apparently the tens of billions we could spend annually on social programs are less important than Labor’s reputation for keeping election promises - apart from all the ones they break.

I am a recent migrant, if I am to accept Australia and its history, it must include ALL of it.

I benefit from the dispossession of First Nations peoples of their lands.

What make us weaker is immaturity that can't deal with any difficulties or complexities.

When academics, whistleblowers and NGOs 1st criticised 🌱 regen carbon credits, the @CERegulator & carbon companies said that we just didn't have access to all the data. Now we do. And look: 42% of projects have lost veg and 40% have had no change in veg. https://t.co/C0chgXpm2Q

Trying to get head around a Bill which proposes to allow Santos to take CO2 from a very polluted gas field (Barossa) to Timor Leste, then pump it underground for ‘carbon capture’.. which doesn’t really work…

.. Because if we dump it on a poorer country it’s not our problem?
