Take action! Subs due 11 July to NSW DCCEEW ACCUs proposed for Improved Forest Management in Public Native Forests (IFM). wildernessaustralia.org.au/submission_gui… #CutCarbonNotForests #EndNativeForestLogging

Australia needs to cut emissions and capitalise on the #CleanEnergy transition. What it does not need is highly polluting, highly expensive new gas fields like Beetaloo. Read our analysis ➡️ marketforces.org.au/campaigns/comp… #auspol

Yep, rather than protect Murujuga, @AustralianLabor ‘s @MurrayWatt is hosting a tea party with ambassadors of UNESCO member countries, trying to cut a deal so they ignore Woodside’s acid gas emissions destroying one of the Australia and the World’s greatest cultural treasures.

DEA will head to the Federal Court on July 14 -15 to challenge NOPSEMA’s approval of the Environment Plan for Woodside’s Scarborough gas project. This is a pivotal moment – not just for climate litigation, but for public health in Australia. Stay tuned.
