POV: When you learn that Australia taxes beer more than polluting gas exports And the cherry on top? That gas is driving climate change and worsening extreme weather – no matter where it’s burned. Thanks for the hot tip @davidpocock.bsky.social

Climate Council CEO Amanda McKenzie joined 7News to speak about why Aussie power prices are so high, and who's to blame. Turns out, it's the exact culprits you'd expect. Learn more about power bills in our new 'Power Games' report via the link in bio!
Major Japanese gas exporter INPEX conceded during last week's senate inquiry that a tax on gas exports wouldn't impact prices for consumers - and would only eat into the profit margins of gas corporations. ...ah yeah, that's kind of the point 😎

🔄 Green Music Australia Right now, gas corporations are taking our resources, driving climate pollution and pocketing massive profits – leaving Australians to pay now and into the future. It’s time for big polluters to pay their fair share.
This is another reminder of the volatility and riskiness of fossil fuels. It shows that a system built on ageing infrastructure leaves Australia vulnerable to fuel insecurity and price shocks. We are relieved to hear that all workers on site are safe.
We could create a reel talking about climate solutions and how they're here and ready to go, or we could let the crew at Subway Takes do it instead! And FWIW, we 100% agree.
Record high global climate pollution. Record high temperatures forecast for Victoria. Here in Melbourne, temperatures are sitting at 45ºC, and it feels like walking through hot jelly. This is climate change.
Wonder how gas corporations have been getting away with profiteering for so long? Climate Councillor and former fossil fuel exec Greg Bourne broke it down at yesterday's Senate Inquiry into a gas exports tax.
Climate whiplash is hitting us hard, and putting Australians lives and livelihoods at risk. We need deep and rapid cuts to climate pollution now to keep Australians safer. Here's meteorologist and Climate Councillor Andrew Watkins to break it down.

On this Memorial Day, let us honor and remember those who gave their lives serving our country.
A small town in Michigan did everything right to stop OpenAI & Oracle from building a $16 billion data center in their town. The people convinced their officials to reject it and they did. Two days later the developers sued, and the town couldn’t afford to fight back in court.

This is WHY Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jeffries have to go. Dems MUST draw a clear line between themselves & Republicans on Gaza. JD Vance isn’t wrong to blame Joe Biden & Kamala Harris for part of Gaza—but Trump & Vance have blood on their hands too. They both backed Israel, & that’s how we got here.🤦🏿♂️
