โStaggeringโ Water Loss Driven by Groundwater Mining Poses Global Threat
A new study finds that freshwater resources are rapidly disappearing, creating arid โmegaโ regions and causing sea levels to rise.
This is a pretty alarming new study out today (doi.org/10.1126/scia... - read the abstract) and here are some great visuals and highlights from it by @propublica.org: www.propublica.org/article/wate...
"Since 2002, 75% of the population lives in 101 countries that have been losing freshwater water"

The @climate200.bsky.social team and I have been working feverishly on something BIG.
This federal election will be fought on a knife's edge. With Trump-style politics threatening to take hold in Australia, the stakes couldn't be higher.

As CEO of the Mornington Peninsula Support Centre, Iโve seen too many families in crisis this Christmas.
Food & cost-of-living relief shouldnโt rely on volunteers. Itโs time for the government to step up. As your independent, Iโll push for real action for those in need.

UW study finds leading cause of whale deaths
New research shows that the top threat to whales around the globe has changed. But it wouldn't take much to reduce the risk, researchers say.
40% of the mass of everything transported by a ship in 2023 was a fossil fuel.
That stat paired with this new study shines a pretty harsh spotlight on how obscenely bad-faith the right-wing concern trolling around offshore wind + whales is

Yesterday, I launched my campaign as an independent for the federal seat of Flinders.
Itโs time for change - affordable housing, better healthcare, protecting our environment & a thriving local economy. Together, we can #flipflinders & put people over politics.

Indie candidates usually take time to write up their policies โ either adopting the work of the preceding community group or start community listening in their own way. Wouldnโt make sense to launch with policies without involving local opinion.

Voter: Really? You didn't stand up for Gazans, climate change, transpeople, Indigenous people against mining companies, public education, health care, threatened species, etc - things you *said* were important.

Cartoon of Peter Dutton and Anthony Albanese using a lawnmower with the words โTwo (Stroke) Party System: VICTORSโ written on it. They are mowing through grass with roots that read โGrassroots Representationโ. Behind them, Parliament House stands tall like a castle with โElectoral Reformโ above it.
