How much of the world’s proven coal, oil and gas (i.e. already found, pays to extract at today’s prices) can still be burned for a 66% chance of holding 2 °C? About 30%. The other 70%, 2,040 billion tonnes of CO₂, are stranded assets. Burn it all and CO₂ alone means roughly 2.7 °C Purple = added

It's ridiculous that CEOs require millions of dollars in compensation when most employees under them are living paycheck to paycheck. So many problems in this world are caused by greed.

The blistering @franceskalbs.bsky.social UN report you won't see much in the media. Captured media/journalists complicit in Gaza genocide Story by Aleta Moriarty #ABC #BBC #CNN #NYT #Murdoch #Israel michaelwest.com.au/un-puts-medi...

Well will you look at that. The group supposedly run by a John Grimwade (which seems to have people auditing media & commerce so they can flag anything annoying the pro-Israel far right) is setting up a campaign against ABC’s Raf Epstein. #Auspol

40% of all energy use is Norway is for fossil fuel extraction + We are failing to build new power production even as data centre projections keep climbing up and up + On track to miss climate goals so we'll make up for it w/ EU offsets nyhetsbrev.energiogklima.no/p/r/eqFbf56y...

Truly ruly? Promise?

There’s having no knowledge then there’s purposely lying for your racist agenda

Kerry O’Brien:What’s left of the democracy we thought we had? In the eyes of many Australians, government is a hollowed-out husk of what it once was, with limited will and capacity to plan for, let alone exercise, a measure of sovereign control over technology.. www.themonthly.com.au/october-2026...

Those MPs should be named.

Tim Dunlop: …you would have to conclude that major parties seem perversely primed to do just that, and their appeasement is consolidating electoral support into social base. Thus is the Coalition turning into One Nation. And Labor turning into the Coalition.¹ tdunlop.substack.com/p/this-is-no...

Solar has overtaken nuclear. A decade ago it supplied 1% of the world's power. In 2025 it met three quarters of global demand growth. Almost nobody saw it coming. I spoke to Jocelyn Timperley at BBC Future about why. www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...

What happens if parts of northern Australia become too hot to live in, or the Great Barrier Reef turns white forever? Senior CSIRO scientists say Australia needs that conversation before it is too late, Peter Hannam writes. #Climate #CSIRO #auspol

Well done @albomp.bsky.social and your right wing @australianlabor.bsky.social. Keep them in poverty long enough that they'll be eager to work for $2ph (or food) for your 'donors'. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10... #auspol Once more I ask: What is the point of Labor?

A warning to all Westpac customers from Senator David Shoebridge. It is a dangerous situation that Westpac has joined forces with military spy company Palantir. youtube.com/shorts/UFCMt... #auspol

Maximum global sea-ice extent usually occurs in early November. As of October 25th, this year's global sea-ice extent currently ranks 3rd lowest for the day, just 40,000 km² above the record daily low set in 2023. Will 2026 see a new record low maximum? Stay tuned!

Older people have been saying this for months. Labor's automation of aged care assessments has been a disaster, under-assessing need and priority, denying care and driving up waitlists. It's past time to bin the whole thing and put humans back in charge of decision-making.

Economics isn’t necessarily a zero-sum game. But power is zero-sum. The more at the top, the less anywhere else. The fact is, wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power. To understand the system, we need to understand the cycle.

Remember all those times that there was a standoff in the US by Republicans to not approve Democrat budgets supposedly because of concerns about deficits? Not one concern under Trump as US debt skyrockets to new astronomical new highs

Politicians telling us to ‘turn down the temperature’ is peak hypocrisy, @amyremeikis.bsky.social writes. "Why is it the people pointing to the fire are those being told to stop being so vocal about it?" www.deepcutnews.com/p/politician...

The answer coming from these two knuckleheads is... "Get it off the poors,they're already fucked and they don't even go overseas or buy anything much" #auspol #PoorPeopleDontDriveorNeedPhones

“Large AI firms are shopping around the world trying to sell their snake oil and the price is copyright reform. International creative businesses are looking at Australia and cannot believe the government has been duped.” The Albanese govt isn’t just risking Australian IP. It is exposing the world.

What kind of government reduces human rights? First they exempt 10 years olds from human rights to put them in jail Now they will exempt all prisoners so they can overcrowd prisons without recourse to Human Rights Crissafossilfueli's LNP govt is inhumane www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

#AtlasNetwork thinktanks funded by Big Oil/billionaires pushed privatisation of public assets in the '80s, then sold to Atlas insiders. They advocated for removal of taxation of fossil/polluting industry, undermine public support for climate policy & block clean energy with disinformation. #NZpol

Victorian Socialists has announced candidates in all 88 Legislative Assembly districts and 8 Legislative council regions - the first time in the history of Victoria that a socialist party has contested every seat in both houses of the state parliament.

Shoebridge shreds NACC CEO Philip Reed after FOI reveals another conflict of interest breach where he let the new Acting Dep Commissioner improperly sit on a panel—a day after new rules were set Reed says it wasn’t his job to call it out as he was “not chairing the meeting”🤦‍♂️ffs

As ex-CNN journalist Christiane Amanpour has said: good journalism is "truthful, not neutral". Too many Australian mainstream reporters pursue a stupid and dangerous version of neutrality, which results in giving equal time to fascist liars.

Everybody is talking about Lula, but actually the victory in Serbia of a student-led, anti-government group fronting candidates from across society is almost more interesting for what it says about the potential to genuinely transform politics with the right movement at the right moment.

He seems to know where the 'Israel Safe Borders' are ...please ... show the map.

It's always like they are running favourable/protection PR for a government committing a genocide! OH WAIT!! 🤔 They are!

We are all aware of Hitler's horrific treatment of Jews in Europe. However perhaps Don Farrell needs to appraise himself of the equally horrific treatment by Israel of Palestinians, aid workers, and inconvenient Christians that live in the region.

Don Farrell. 😡

David Shoebridge asks Don Farrell if he’s aware the Sumud Flotilla was trying to provide aid to starving Palestinians. Farrell rambles, starts talking about a book he read on Hitler’s “shocking treatment of the Jews” Shoebridge “Minister I’ll draw you back to my question…” 🙄
