Australia has one of the worst rates of deforestation globally. For every 100 ha of native woodland cleared, about 2000 birds, 15,000 reptiles & 500 native mammals will die.
The law is meant to safeguard our wildlife & planet.
End the loopholes in the EPBC Act.

Googleโ€™s carbon capture bullshit proves big tech is speed-running the greenwashing gauntlet

Carbon capture and storage will never stop failing, but that failure will never kill it dead, because it exists to service a fantasy, not to operate as a technology, @ketanjoshi.co writes.

Liberals were the party for women โ€“ then John Howard came along In its early years, the Liberal Party achieved most of the โ€œfirstsโ€ for women in Australian politics and, for much of the 20th century.

Before Howard, Liberals were the party for women

It is easy to forget that the Liberal Party was founded as a genuinely liberal movement. It championed secure employment fair wages union membership and home ownership.

Howardโ€™s โ€˜FightBackโ€™ killed it

Woollies does an instant Pho. Itโ€™s good (for an instant meal) made in Thailand but 6$, which is a bit steep for an instant meal. Great if you like that sort of food and youโ€™ve run out of day time!

Norway taxes their fossil fuel industry and gives their kids free university education.

In Australia, we give more than half of the gas we export away for free, and charge our kids a fortune to go to uni.
