Born @ 310.4 ppm Only rapid reduction of fossil fuels, focus on saving species from extinction, degrowth and the right people in Parliaments, will give young people a healthy and safer future

“Nature is in crisis, nationally & internationally. @ScientistsX took to the streets to share some hard, scientific facts about the state of biodiversity decline & loss, and the failure of governments, including @DefraGovUK & the UK government, to address this. #TheBigOne 1/19”

The greatest crime ever is the rapidly increasing destruction of life on the planet. Listening to scientists awakens us to the urgency OR we could listen to the fossil fuel industry and pretend it is not happening

“Robodebt case study needs to be taught in every public service & Ministerial orientation program from this point on. It signifies everything that was wrong with how the Coalition did business & how public servants enabled the government to pursue illegal & unethical agendas”
Debbie SpillaneRecommended reading of the day. @grogsgamut looks at how much the tax breaks on superannuation really cost — and who is reaping the bulk of the benefits.
“My colleagues at the Australia Institute estimate that the cost of tax concessions for superannuation is on par with the cost of the entire aged pension:
It is rare that you can come up with anything that costs more than the stage-three tax cuts, but super tax concessions do. And like the tax cuts, they also massively favour the wealthy.”
But, you know, increasing JobSeeker would cost too much 🙄
