Those aware of the climate and ecological crisis, who are scientifically informed, are being made to feel like they have some weird cult like belief, despite their whole outlook, being based on the best possible science, available to humanity. https://t.co/JCOd05bWVK 1/🧵

Remember the 'greenhouse effect"? Back when the science was not doubted and the causes well understood! #climatemisinformation
We've emitted far more greenhouse gases since this reel was broadcast then in all of history before it. The fossil fuel industry have fought to prevent #climate action every step of the way and continues to do so today. https://t.co/2StdNa8Gl9

If we want to take our democracy back from lobbyists (Zionist, Fossil Fuel), we need to take it back from the major parties that do their bidding first #Independents #auspol24 #greens
This is excellent.

And the SCAM continues! We have the most expensive gas in the world... Yet export the most. You really can't make this stuff up... Because the captured polieshave already rigged the rules in favour of their gas mates and against we the punters! #australia #auspol

Maybe we should treat it like a war and 'fight' it then? (PS maybe the 100s billions we're planning to spend on submarines could be better spent eleswhere?) FFS humanity do we actually care what future our kids face?? #climatecrisis

When Albo @AlboMP said he'd "end the climate wars" we didn't realise he planned to do it by surrendering to the gas industry!! Vote Independent or Greens for Science Based Climate Policy - Your children's future depends on it!! #Climatecrisis #Auspol

The ALP must not receive the vote of any climate concerned Australian. Organise now to elect independents or Greens committed to science-based climate policy. Both major parties are owned by industry and are willing to condemn your children's future! #ClimateCrisis #Auspol
"This is a plan to expand the industry that's causing climate change, and we're greenwashing it and calling it a solution." "It's sick." Richard explains the issues with the Future Gas Strategy in this video. @RDNS_TAI

Re the Government's "A Future Made in Australia" thing: Climate change is cost, not benefit. The cheer-leading about winning the energy transition shouldn't disguise the fact that we’re trying to prevent a hellscape and might not succeed. @TheNewDailyAu

It has been a big week for the energy transition cheerleading industry, with three big renewable projects announced or started.

Don't look up,...... #ClimateEmergency
Despite 2023 marking the hottest year on record, corporate broadcast news decreased climate coverage by 25%. What the fuck. Is it just that they're owned by the billionaire class which prioritizes a docile ignorant public over a livable planet? Or do they simply not care

Capitalism currently has no concern other than the bottom line. If we want the pendulum to swing, we need to empower greater social and environmental democracy, (i.e., the dirtied word 'socialism') that's us peeps! Let's go with our boots on.... ✊✊

“The playbook is this: sell consumers a product that you know is dangerous, while publicly denying or downplaying those dangers. Then, when the dangers are no longer deniable, deny responsibility and blame the consumer,”

Capitalism is not going to save us from itself, collapse is more profitable than saving the planet within an investment prospectus time frame - surely time for eco-socialist politics? #collapse

Relying on private companies to solve the climate crisis means that the planet’s fate rests in the hands of asset managers, says Brett Christophers, a professor at Sweden’s Uppsala University

Come on media step up!!, it's your job remember? #ClimateEmergency
Dear journalists of the world: We are at risk of losing basically everything. This - what we're experiencing now - is how that process unfolds. The more fossil fuels we burn, the further in that process we go. You MUST begin to tell 5 critical truths. Civilization depends on it.
