The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

Two photos of a golden retriever taken six years apart. First photo is taken on the beach. The second photo is beside a pink rose.

This surprisingly relaxing footage is from SIX MILES under the ocean – and it’s the deepest ecosystem yet discovered

The algal bloom off South Australia’s coast is a devastating consequence of climate change.

We need stronger emissions targets, real investment in environmental science, and leadership that matches the urgency of this crisis.

Glad to see you and the dogs again Bridie. Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery.

Absolutely devastating, things like this can't really be modeled, we are now truly in uncharted waters.

Look after yourselves, do what you love and be with who you love. Control what you can, involve yourself in your community and help if you're able.

It is incredible how poor the signal is in regional areas.

Soft plastic recycling is back in supermarkets!  - The Australia Institute Soft plastics recycling is returning to supermarkets. But what happens to the plastic and is it the answer to one of our big waste problems?

He’s in severe denial.

Instead of obsessing about Climate 200's crowdfunding to support candidates committed to saving our planet, maybe the media could focus more on Atlas Network's funding of individuals and organisations to promote climate denialism and undermine democracy to benefit the (very) privileged few?

Take a look #auspol > youtu.be/zXHq04W0kBs?...

OMG, I've got #Insiders on Mute & they just trotted out Bridget McKenzie🤦 FFS, could it get any less 'expert'? Does my head in. Independent Journalism gets NIL funding & yet it craps all over ABC & MSM for relevance. No wonder so many ppl are ill informed & tuning out politics. #auspol #SundayShot

I could listen to @petercronau.bsky.social all day. #sundayshot

Why Australia’s most prominent climate change deniers have stopped talking about the climate Global warming sceptics now argue it is more palatable with the electorate to pivot from climate denialism to anti-renewable energy scepticism

Really helpful. Thanks Bridie!

I’m here on the Reef today - snorkelling off Cairns - and it’s looking very poor #auspol

Peter Dutton says he wants to keep Australians safe — but won’t confirm if he accepts climate change is escalating.

Our security agencies are clear: climate change is a major threat. Denial is not leadership — it puts lives and our future at risk. #AusPol #ClimateAction

So Dutton is an actual climate denier, last night running standard tropes: "I'm not a scientist but...", and yet somehow also, "the science is uncertain" (paraphrased).

Why isn't this the biggest story of the day; of the campaign?

One of the unexpected bonuses of running in this election is getting to meet people like Bec, a regenerative agriculture farmer.

A big thanks to Bec and neighbour Nick for taking time to take me around the farm and sharing your knowledge, stories, and vision.

Mr Dutton, denying climate change puts people and nature in harm’s way Peter Dutton’s responses on climate change in last night’s leaders’ debate, along with a string of climate damaging policies, reveal the Coalition is out of touch on a major issue affecting voters’ li...
