The right to peaceful protest is fundamental to a healthy democracy. This has been a heavy-handed and punitive response to @BlockadeAus #ClimateCrisis actions, intended to discourage non-violent protest.

To slow the uptake of #ElectricVehicles, Australia's car industry is secretly campaigning against mandatory Fuel Efficiency Standards. Sprung, @FCAI_Au 🤨 To achieve our 43% emission reduction, @Bowenchris must tackle transport emissions smh.com.au/national/revea…


Ditch gas! I'm (finally) having gas disconnected from my house this week, shifting to all-electric. Making good use of the increasing % of renewable energy in the grid (including 10kw generated on my roof) and saving money. #EnergyTransition gaining momentum! #ClimateAction

Extreme heat is on the rise with significant increases in the length, intensity and frequency of #HeatWaves in many regions. The best way to protect Australians from worsening heat is to contribute to efforts to deeply and rapidly reduce #greenhouse gas emissions this decade.

India, Pakistan heatwave likelihood increased X30 by climate change. Read full report from World Weather Attribution – Exploring the contribution of climate change to extreme weather events worldweatherattribution.org



Climate action is voters' top priority as the #Election2022 approaches. In Newcastle, we asked candidates to outline the #ClimateAction policies and commitments they'll take to Canberra if elected. Watch now > youtube.com/watch?v=eZlU0n…

The Australian election this May is critical for #ClimateAction. Let's ensure all candidates pledge to take decisive action if elected to reduce #greenhouse gas emissions and accelerate the transition to renewables. eventbrite.com.au/e/climate-acti…
