The Climate Council's Tim Flannery says WA's record heat is a warning of extreme summers to come. "Looking forward a decade, that record in Onslow will look more like the average, if we don't act, than an extreme event - and that's deeply concerning." https://t.co/KBWnE5SUF8

In news that's unrelated to the release of today's bullshit modelling of Australia's not zero by 2050 plan - conducted by @McKinsey - 1,100 employees of the firm signed a letter protesting the obstructive role it is playing in the shift to zero emissions.

A letter signed by more than 1,100 employees has called for change at the consulting firm, which has advised at least 43 of the 100 most environmentally damaging companies.

For all the talk of the ‘the Australian way’, it’s actually US-based consultants who are providing the modelling for net-zero by 2050, at considerable cost and at the expense of homegrown expertise. CSIRO staff slam outsourced net-zero modelling - https://t.co/osxCccpxKP

⚠️Australia is in trouble. Extreme rainfall has destroyed homes, displaced people and damaged habitats. As global temperatures increase, landscapes dry out, causing severe droughts and flooding. We need urgent #ClimateAction now. RT to raise awareness.

Experts say it’s unusual to see so many places with such high rainfall across such a wide area. But identifying the cause is complicated
