Dear Australians. I woke up this morning choking on the smell of bushfire smoke in my hotel room. This is your Opera House. UK got off coal in 7 years; Norway is preparing for life after oil. What is your plan? Where is your leadership? Where are your leaders? This is shameful!
Fantastic effort @SamRogersAU! Thanks so much for your hard work and support of @OAusTrailwalker.
We hope the weather stays fine and your walk goes really well tomorrow!
Late last year I decided to sign up to the 100km @OxfamAustralia Trailwalker. We’ve raised >$8k for Oxfam’s efforts to end global poverty and we're not done yet. The walk is tomorrow.. I'd be so grateful for your support: https://t.co/S0hjYyF7ij.
You can’t lose on this one👇
"As a wealthy, emissions-intensive country with abundant natural resources, in a region highly vulnerable to climate impacts, Australia should take its Paris climate targets very seriously" @ClimateWorksAus @MonashMSDI#IPCC https://t.co/xzUz5rLg8j
To avoid >1.5 degrees, IPCC says world needs to be zero emissions by 2050.
Developed countries like Australia need to get to zero long before then- ie 2035.
Electricity needs to get to zero emissions before that -ie 2025-2030.
Where's our plan to cut emissions by 6-8%/year?
@p_hannam This is huge. First Japan moves with Marubeni and Dai-ichi Life and Nippon Life, then @StanChart moves, and now major South Korean pension funds move. Great to see @moonriver365. Next we will hear KEPCO is investing in Asian #RenewableEnergy?! ✔️ Great news hey @mattjcan!
