If NSW wants to stop climate change protests, there's an alternative to jailing activists

If New South Wales wants to stop climate protests, they'd be better off ramping down fossil fuel production and lifting climate targets than jailing protesters.

@BrendanCarton great piece of science reporting on anti-climate protest laws and what NSW/Australia🇦🇺 is actually doing in exacerbating the #climatecrisis.

So, 17 new or expanded coal projects in the pipeline in NSW alone, 114 new #FossilFuel coal and gas projects around Australia as a whole. No phaseout of #FossilFuelSubsidies running at over $11 billion per year.

These are the disturbing facts that motivate good people like Violet #FreeVioletCoco
