Well, I have just sweltered through the hottest October day on record, 34oC. That motivated me to write a letter to Reece Whitby to tell him to reject Woodside's NWS gas processing extension to 2070.
You can sign a petition to stop it here.

The WA government also has its climate change policy up for public comment for just another 24 hours.

Trying to sneak it through while everyone was distracted by the referendum and other things.

It's looking like it's going to be a rough Summer, lets fight to stop it from getting worse!

As someone "working" in the climate activism space, it's incredibly frustrating seeing fossil gas companies talking about supplying clean energy. When they are supplying gas, which is literally a greenhouse gas. That would be predictable propaganda if I didn't constantly find that my politicians repeat it in their speeches.

Take a look at this speech from earlier this year by Federal Resources Minister Madeleine King

https://www.minister.industry.gov.au/.../speech-powering...

Was it written by a Gas industry spokesperson? is Minister King one?

It isn't any better at the State Level. With the recent actions by Disrupt Burrup Hub, we have seen Premier Cook display a shocking lack of understanding about how the Gas industry is driving climate change and what climate activists are actually asking for.
Didn't anyone find it strange that they both just casually called Meg O'Neil to express sympathies? They have sympathies with Meg because they are effectively colleagues, they have a personal relationship they move in the same circles. Did they personally call the people of the Fitzroy River Basin to personally give their sympathies when climate change-fuelled rains washed their houses away?

Looks as unbalanced as the #westaustralia #westaustralien lower house. Red is the Labour party (left wing workers party) . Blue the liberals (right wing big business used to be in power) and green the nationals (country party). #statedaddy #walabor

The white ones are empty, I guess that's for future expansion.

Let's kick off with this:

Why tf do these boomers keep insisting everyone must be miserable in order to succeed? And why tf is #WALabor so conservative? Have some compassion, mate. #WApolitics is so depressing right now.

#Hello, new platform. I'm doing up a proper #intro / #introduction / #introductions with my tags so I can get amongst it properly. I've come from Twitter, where I did some fun work swearing at #Centrelink and getting hassled by LNP senators after giving evidence at the robodebt inquiry. I'm an unashamed #armchairactivism participant, giving media interviews from the comfort of my couch.

So! I am here for #auspol especially things like #robodebt and other #socialwelfare issues, #auslaw especially #adminlaw etc, #socialhousing #communityhousing #publichousing activism because I'm stuck in a decrepit shithole making my health worse, #publichealth #aushealthcare #Medicare to rant about crippled universal healthcare, #WApolitics because #WALabor is a conservative shitshow atm, #mentalhealth #disability #chronicillness rights and not just for #COVID19 #COVID #longCOVID, #LGBT #queer #gender #trans equity, strictly #intersectional #feminism (I will mercilessly ridicule TERFs and SWERFs), #climatecrisis #climatechange as it disproportionately affects already disadvantaged people, and I will need #cats as a palate cleanser between whingetoots. I'm a staunch #Greens supporter and consider state & federal #Labor to have become class traitors in the global push towards a capitalist dystopia that leaves vulnerable people behind.

Obviously I'm a raging progressive, and I look forward to getting to know more of the same because I like my echo chamber loud xox
