@ApaulD this is fixable. NASA has tech to monitor methane emissions with satellite imagery. We could use it get rid of states self-reporting emissions and entrust monitoring to the UN.

“Why don’t we react in unbridled outrage to the devastation of the natural world taking place before our eyes?
A major reason is that we don’t realize what we’ve lost. It’s called “shifting baseline syndrome”
👇

“next time you go for a hike in nature, & marvel at its beauty, take a moment to realize that you are looking at a pale, shrunken wraith of what it once was. An accumulation of studies around the world measuring the declines of species & ecosystems indicates that overall we’ve lost around 90% of nature’s profusion.”

A good simple explanation of why the indefinite delay in reforming the Environment Protection Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act matters in terms of new coal approvals - and presumably the same applies to gas.

Peter Dutton continues to spread toxic pro-nuclear lies – constantly amplified by the Murdoch Press.
#media #journalism #news
Despite staunch community opposition to radioactive waste dumps. And despite the big #electricity companies joining experts to oppose Dutton's plan for slow, expensive nuclear reactors – which would delay the transition from polluting coal & gas to clean renewable energy.

Today’s damage. So much. 🤬
Please write to @tanyaplibersek federal environment minister. Labor just reneged on strengthening environment law. Meanwhile states continue destroying environment her ministry is supposed to protect.
