The speech we are still waiting for Anthony Albanese to deliver Last week, rallies were held under the banner of “March for Australia.”

"These marchers did not march for Australia. They marched against Australians. Against the refugee child in Bankstown. Against the nurse from Manila. Against the Yolŋu elder who speaks for 65,000 years of wisdom. These Australians do not need to prove their loyalty—"

RFK Jr. is living in a pretend anti-vax world Unfortunately, he is wreaking havoc in the real one.

In a marathon hearing on Thursday before the Senate Finance Committee, RFK Jr. faced a barrage of questions from senators who were outraged by his recent actions.

In some cases, Kennedy appeared to promote flat-out lies.

Chris Bowen seeks to rally pro-renewable farmers to the green energy transition, but admits more work needs to be done to improve consultation and benefits.

Never put them in the dishwasher! How to make wooden kitchen utensils last longer Hardwearing, affordable and non-toxic, wooden utensils are a smart swap for plastic – but how do you keep them looking (and working) their best?

Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.

I am led to believe a number of privileged, entitled old white men and their crumb maidens are again losing their shit over Greta Thunberg.

Many Australians struggle to access safe, affordable medical cannabis. It’s time to replace outdated stigma with education & reform. Cannabis is not just a plant, it’s an opportunity for health, sustainability & justice.
Get involved. Be part of the change.

Solar and batteries play directly to Australia’s strengths. But to make the transition work, we also need to address leaky homes and inefficient appliances.

The rush to smash the environment is cloaked in Chalmers speak.. ‘how we can responsibly reduce and improve regulation and speed up approvals’? The word ‘responsibly’ is joke. Albo’s intervention to remove fish farms from EPBC is not ‘responsible’, it is extinction driver. #MaugeanSkate

Ouch.

Billions set aside for WA's clean energy transition still unspent There are concerns WA's transition to renewable energy could be even further delayed, with $3 billion in federal funds sitting idle more than two years after they were announced.

Tasmanian Liberals are leading by example. Labor remains rusted on to old thinking Only one party is playing the politics of minority government in Tasmania — the Liberals. Labor is preferring to sulk in the corner and demand everyone pretend it won the election.

Murray Watt’s decision to tick off fish farms in Macquarie Harbour using Albo’s weakened Env law reminds me of the con trick Labor and LEAN played on Aust community in 2022. Elect them , they said and they would introduce new stronger Env laws. They lied. Maugean skate headed for extinction.

‘Self-termination is most likely’: the history and future of societal collapse An epic analysis of 5,000 years of civilisation argues that a global collapse is coming unless inequality is vanquished

Modern humans can’t change course because we’re hard-wired to believe we’re exceptional. It’s not possible to rip through Earth’s environmental resources at warp speed and avoid extinction.
