What new #EnvLaws mean for our kids:
✅ Native forests are safer
✅ High-risk land clearing loopholes are closing
✅ Responsible renewables get a clearer, faster path
✅ Coal & gas fast-tracking blocked
Still needed🔽
🚨We need climate pollution to count in every decision about coal and gas.
It’s worth reminding ourselves that there is a scientific consensus around the climate science.
Scientists are as certain of the blanket of human caused emissions wrapped around the earth as they are that gravity is real or that the earth is round.

Then why are fossil fuel companies being welcomed into Australian classrooms? They are funding resources, sponsoring programs, even shaping lessons - all while our governments cut public school funding and increase subsidies to the fossil fuel industry.

Every child has the right to breathe clean, healthy air. Yet across Australia, children are exposed daily to harmful pollutants that affect their lungs, development & wellbeing - from vehicle exhaust, coal & gas projects, to bushfire smoke.

Dunno if youse are across this... but it's forecast that in Sydney on Wednesday the temp will be 38C. (100 F)
It's OCTOBER! That's FIFTEEN DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE!
Our Government and fossil fuel companies are determined to cook us alive! Boil the oceans. Kill our forests. Turn habitat to ash.🥺😩
