Huge show of support for Palestine, Gaza and the Palestine solidarity movement at @Sydney_Uni this morning while Zionists conduct their cynical 'march for a safe campus'. Real safety means thriving communities. That and genocide just don't mix.

*If* wildlife spotters and catchers aren’t checking trees before they’re destroyed, animals such as this devine baby black-footed tree-rat, a listed threatened species, are almost certainly being condemned and crushed to death.
Is this your ‘Nature Positive’, @tanya_plibersek?
I’m told 18 protesters were arrested today, yet allegedly clearing is occurring without fauna spotters & catchers & areas that shouldn’t be cleared have been?
If true, why aren’t breaches of environmental law & regulations punished?

Trees & their hollows are homes for wildlife, including threatened species such as the Gouldian finch, black-footed tree-rat & northern brushtail possum. Today they're being destroyed at Lee Point in Darwin, after @Tanya_Plibersek's approval. Ecocide in action. Environment laws?

Finland is aiming to go carbon neutral in 15 years. They're creating jobs by boosting #renewables and saving trees. Its CO2 emissions have already dropped 21% since 1990s levels.
We have the solutions, let's speed it up and implement them. #ActOnClimate

Can't wait for this satellite to expose all the coal and gas projects in Australia that have been underestimating their emissions for years.

From the start of its pipeline, to its gasfield in the Pilliga, Santos' still-not-built Narrabri Gas Project faces unwavering community opposition.
It's time Santos gave up on this decade-old delusion.

The massive gas pipeline fire burning right now in Central QLD shows why no community or farmer should be forced to accept dangerous gas infrastructure near their homes.

200 scientists called out our fossil fuel obsession in The New York Times during the UN's Climate Ambition Summit. Let’s make sure we have a climate policy worth advertising next time, starting with an immediate stop to new coal and gas production.

Every day, I'm asked “What can I do to make a difference?” and my answer is this: alongside the grim realities we face, we need to know what we as individuals and as a society can do, and are doing, to make a difference. Read more: time.com/collection/time100-…

Critically endangered, the Swift Parrot is on a trajectory towards extinction within a decade.
@tanya_plibersek needs to step in and stop this needless destruction of its habitat.

I’ve just witnessed the most appalling destruction of Swift Parrott habitat in Tasmania.
The Swift Parrot is the world’s fastest parrot and it’s critically endangered.
Here’s a thread of my photos showing the needless destruction of its habitat.

Yesterday’s NSW budget revealed that promised money to the tune of $80m dollar for creation of Great Koala National Park has been cut to $28.45M instead. An absolute tragedy and underlines the governments commitment to the loggers not environment, koalas, climate or forests.
