- Reposted by Christine MilneNo worries, Poss. I get the counter argument. But I think they have an obligation to the country to position ourselves more critically than we are. I have no sense of where they stand, but it feels all in. Carney and Starmer drew lines: I have no sense our govt has even picked up the ruler.
- Reposted by Christine MilneIs there anything more modern-day-Labor than Richard Marles defending Australia troops against slander without mentioning the slander was committed by Donald Trump? Surface level concern underpinned by utter cowardice and complicity.

- Reposted by Christine MilneThey treat nature like it has no voice. But it does. Yours, ours, and millions more. If you believe nature deserves better than this, make sure your MP hears it loud and clear: action.rspb.org.uk/page/180990/... 👈

- Reposted by Christine Milne“COP30 was supposed to be the COP of truth and implementation. Unless nations reckon with the ugly truths revealed here, there will be major repercussions for multilateral climate agreements and more importantly, for the lives of communities who are on the frontlines of the climate crisis.” #COP30

- Reposted by Christine MilneGroundbreaking research released today measures the health impacts that Woodside's Scarborough Gas Project will cause. It shows the harm to our health and the health of our environment. We cannot pretend that greenhouse gas emissions from any one fossil fuel project don't count.

- Reposted by Christine MilneThis is a great, detailed piece of work. There is really no secret here: OpenAI fully intend to use fossil gas to power their data centres.

- Reposted by Christine MilneSo much to mourn here. ICE shot and killed a single father just after he has dropped his two kids off at daycare. Their justification for stopping him was traffic violations form 12 years ago. Their justification for shooting him was that he was driving away. A completely needless tragedy.

- Hard to believe anyone would call for USA to abandon the Geneva Convention. Why are we still in AUKUS? Why are we allowing a new forward deployment US base in Toowoomba? We are allied with people advocating for war crimes. @albomp.bsky.social We do not share these values.

Those theories have been a roadmap for the billionaire ever since.
- Reposted by Christine MilneAn unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.

- Hydro TAS full of confidence that there’s nothing to see here regarding the earthquake associated with the Lake Edgar reverse thrust fault line. In spite of Edgar and ScottsPeak dams being high risk, they were quick to say ‘no damage’. Reality is the dams should be decommissioned.
- After a minor tremor a few weeks ago, then this 4.4 yesterday, is this week’s event in SW Tasmania, the precursor to a major event? I hope the Emergency Services and Huonville Council have practised their emergency response.

- Reposted by Christine MilneIt's particularly acute in Oslo, and in certain parts of Oslo - probably because of congestion charges which are much higher for petrol cars
- Reposted by Christine MilneIt's weird - but now in Oslo, there's so many EVs that you notice the noise and the smell from individual ICE cars, and you realise how much we've been normalising it for ever. You can smell them half a street away. And inside parking lots are just *quiet*.

- Trump's UN speech was one of his most unfiltered and extended climate denial riffs ever, full of falsehoods, lies and distortions. “I’m really good at predicting things...I don’t say that in a braggadocios way, but it’s true. I’ve been right about everything.” www.eenews.net/articles/con...
