So @tanya_plibersek found Whitehaven Coal is a "suitable person" to take over a Qld coal mine because her department found "no env compliance matters to report". JFC, just search for "Whitehaven enviro breach"!!! epbcpublicportal.awe.gov.au/all-notices/pr…
New penalties for polluters in NSW are on the way! The Govt is finally going to increase fines for polluters after 19 years of static fines. The penalty for environment crime must be big enough to be a deterrent - otherwise it's just the cost of doing business @SueHigginson_
We need more renewables projects, but it's important they're built in the right places (not where hundreds of hectares of biodiverse forest and threatened species habitat would have to be bulldozed, for example) theguardian.com/australia-news…
Very disappointed. I was very happy to provide evidence at the inquiry - but am now feeling the inquiry promised so much and is now delivering so little. Tabling a report on 15 December...are they hoping people don't notice? theguardian.com/australia-news…
BREAKING - New freedom of information documents reveal coal companies are lobbying the NSW government to weaken laws governing the long term rehabilitation of mine sites. newcastleherald.com.au/story/8542336/…
The current maximum fine for environmental vandalism and pollution from mining that the EPA can impose is a whopping $5k. Even if you double that, it will mean nothing to a gold or silver mine with annual profits in the 100s of Millions. These fines need to be in the millions!

Nature Conservation Council CEO, Jacqui Mumford, today joined the Mudgee Community to highlight the threats to the local koalas from multiple mining projects, and an inadequate koala management strategy that has sidelined these important populations.
Thank you @KyleaTink for championing the public's right to seek legal review of bad environmental decisions. More important than ever today, as crucial reforms to the EPBC Act are delayed canberratimes.com.au/story/8591628/…
Gaslighting. This is how research showing 2/3 children near a lead mine have lead poisoning and this abomination is how they "fix" it. Stop @MinesSilver Bowdens open cut lead mines poisoning our kids @MWRCouncil @MudgeeRegion #mudgee #nswpol @NSW_EPA @NSWHealth @tanya_plibersek
A population of koalas found to be resistant to weather extremes associated with climate change is set to be wiped out if Yancoal gets its way and expands its Moolarben coal mine. abc.net.au/news/2024-03-2…

The people of Lue @MudgeeRegion @MWRCouncil will not allow @MinesSilver to slaughter healthy koalas and their trees for a lead mine. Stop Bowdens metal mines devastating health, agriculture, tourism, koalas in our region @tanya_plibersek @MudgeeGuardian #NSWpol #auspol #koalas
A magic day with Kellie Leigh, Groot, Candice Stott and Nina. Over 50 people from Lue @MudgeeRegion gathered to learn, share and celebrate. Hands off our koalas @MinesSilver. @PennySharpemlc No Bowdens lead mine. No powerline. @tanya_plibersek #Mudgee #nswpol #auspol #koalas
abc.net.au/news/2024-03-0… @talkingkoala @RainforestsAus @science_koala @yarramanbully @koalagardens @SydBasinKoalas @DCCEEW @greencate Please retweet There are distressing images
This is what happens when koala habitat is wiped out. @MinesSilver plans to destroy hundreds of acres of #mudgee Koalas' homes. Refuse to discuss the existence of koala colonies, won't provide a "management plan". Stop Bowdens carnage @tanya_plibersek google.com/amp/s/7news.co…
The ghost of John Barilaro's pro-coal policies still haunt NSW... On March 14, we're going to rally outside State Parliament to call on the @ChrisMinnsMP Government to "bust" these unwanted ghouls forever! More deets ➡️ lockthegate.org.au/ghostbust_bari…
Dozens of determined landholders around @MinesSilver lead mine site @MudgeeRegion meeting Koala detection experts and well-known researchers this week. Bowdens won't talk to their Landcare neighbours about koalas or anything else. It's a disgrace. @PennySharpemlc @tanya_plibersek

There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been decimated, 100% of the population displaced and 50% of the deaths children… So keep protesting against GENOCIDE..🇵🇸💔
"I'm shocked by the audacity that you are here to talk about civil rights while your country is brutally abusing the people speaking for the rights of the Palestinians." Protesters today interrupted the German ambassador at a civil rights conference in Pakistan's Lahore.
This isn't Germany in 1943. This is Germany in 2024. A country always on the wrong side of History.
Japanese activists are staging a die-in to protest the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza and to demand freedom and justice for the oppressed Palestinians.
They tried to erase Palestine, but the world has become Palestine. Thank you Iceland. Don’t stop talking about Gaza.
🚨🇵🇸 THE WORLD STANDS WITH PALESTINE, NOT ZIONISM!
David Gonzalez, President of the @NTEUUniMelb staff union at Melbourne University, supporting the @Umelb4Palestine Student Gaza Solidarity Encampment's demands & calling on all faculty & union members to get down to show their support in person!
We stand in solidarity with our students. Do you stand with university students? Please, just yes or no?
BREAKING🚨 🇮🇱 Israel officials have held an emergency meeting over reports the International Criminal Court (ICC) is preparing to issue an international Arrest Warrant for Netanyahu… Netanyahu and other prominent cabinet ministers will finally be held accountable for their War…
Emory's Caroline Fohlin is knocked down by the police while shouting: “I’m a professor!!” Hear the disbelief in her voice. She never expected to be treated like this by her own university for protesting Israel's slaughter. But remember, democracy is on the ballot in Nov...
Americans, you're being played...
Happening right now - Students for Palestine are starting an occupation of Sydney University. Acting as they can to try and stop a genocide, and acting at an institution that shamelessly benefits from weapons $$$
@MickdeBrenni The ALP Qld Gov is all for the destruction & fragmentation of probably the best remaining koala colony in Qld, destroying carbon sequestering forest, doing irreparable climate & biodiversity damage. Don’t worry a coal miner will enter PPA for greenwashing x.com/rainforestsaus…
DEVASTATED. We've just heard news that bulldozers have moved in to the Lotus Creek wind farm site owned by @Vestas , Central Qld. Over 100 koalas were seen here, some with joeys on their back. This is a thriving population. We are weeping. This is not a 'just' transition!…
