So proud of Murrawah Johnson, director of our client @youthverdict , winning the world's most prestigious environmental prize for her body of work including the case that stopped Clive Palmer's coal mine https://t.co/jBourfayZF

Learn about what a legislative climate duty of care to young people would look like from Senator Pocock and the indomitable Anjali Sharma (of the eponymous Sharma v Minister ground breaking climate case)

Great opportunity for early career lawyers to apply now to be an Associate in the Land Court of Queensland in 2024 https://t.co/mXpykyo8qk

Interesting development, a coal mine treating First Nations as regulator with veto rights, to help avoid lawsuits later in the process @youthverdict

First Nations group and landholders fight Clive Palmer coal mine. @EDOLawyers are proud to represent @youthverdict and @BimbleboxNR https://t.co/UNmDX3fEwc

[Youth Verdict @youthverdict]

Outside QLD land court for opening arguments of #CulturalRights and #ClimateChange legal challenge to #ClivePalmer’s proposed Galilee Coal Project.
Our First Nations-led argument is the first time a coal mine has been challenged on the grounds of #HumanRights in Australia

[Sean Ryan @SeanRyan271]

@BimbleboxNR & @youthverdict's epic human rights case against Clive Palmer's coal mine, which would unlock billions of tonnes of greenhouse emissions, started at Bimblebox this week with a welcome to country by Wangan Jagalingou people (the proposed mine is on their land)

[Youth Verdict @youthverdict]

"Qld Land Court will visit, be guided by cultural protocols and take ‘on Country evidence’ from First Nations peoples for the first time ever." @murrawah

Disappointing decision for the children the subject of this legal case, based on a duty of care to protect children from the personal injuries that will result from climate change. Will be interesting if there is any appeal

[Elaine Johnson @Elaine_EnvLaw]

So sad. The Full Federal Court has overturned the previous court ruling that the Federal Environment Minister owes Australian children a duty of care on climate harm. Orders published here: https://t.co/delVKCoolu

95% of Australia's coal reserves are unextractable if the world is to achieve the Paris Agreement aim of 1.5C per full paper available here https://t.co/7MEhzbqm4P

[Chris McGrath @DrChrisMcGrath]

"Australia must leave almost all its coal in the ground, as well as a good chunk of its oil and gas, if the world is to have an even chance of keeping global warming to 1.5C." https://t.co/Pk1os0ATmI

[Sean Ryan @SeanRyan271]

Re EPA Regulatory Strategy: "136 The description of the environmental issue of climate change is so general and trite that it fails to provide any foundation for the discussion of the regulatory challenge."
Full Decision available here https://t.co/LNCmoflhc4

[Sean Ryan @SeanRyan271]

Really great work by @ElaineEDO and Matt Floro for our client @BSCA_Aus today. Landmark decision

[Environmental Defenders Office @EDOLawyers]

We won!

Celebrating for our client @BSCA_Aus today after the court ruled @NSW_EPA has a duty to address GHG emissions + climate change.

It's the first time an Australian Court has ordered a government to take meaningful action on climate change. #EmpowertheEPA #climateactionnow

[Sean Ryan @SeanRyan271]

Federal government downgrades coal export forecasts "largely because of a slower than previously expected increase in coal imports into India and faster falls into Japan and South Korea” - Argus Media
