First look at a system wide view MethaneSAT data show emissions vary widely by region, exceed inventories & industry’s goals

Methane leaks are much bigger than industry or the EPA reports!

So, gas is usually much dirtier than claimed by the gas industry and its supporters like @thebti.bsky.social
.
Some gas is probably dirtier than burning coal!

LNG also makes gas dirtier.

We've written to the government asking them to sign the declaration.

The first simple step is to endorse the Declaration on Information Integrity on Climate Change, which came out of COP30 in #Belem

Disinformation is one of the biggest barriers to us becoming a renewable super power.

As Australia prepares to lead negotiations at COP31 climate talks, we're calling on the Government to uphold information integrity.

Fossil fuel ad bans are popping up around the world 🌍

Because if a product is killing people, you shouldn’t promote it.

OKAY BIG ONE FOR YA

NEW report out today: I dig deep into how big tech has been muddling tech types and overstating evidence to claim "AI" will make global emissions drop like a stone....

Not only will it not, it seems to be verifiably doing the opposite!!

Australians bearing the brunt of ‘second-best’ climate plans One of the nation’s leading economists says Australians are paying the price for a political class that is “far from brave” when it comes to climate policy.

Dumb political climate wars by the Libs and Nats are damaging Australia’s economy.

Air pollution from burning fossil fuels causes 100,000 to 200,000 avoidable American deaths per year. At the EPA's statistical value of life of $10 million, these deaths cost America $1 to $2 trillion per year, every year. These costs far outweigh the costs of transitioning off of fossil fuels.

Jon Kudelka was climate champion who boycotted the Walkely Awards over its sponsorship by Ampol - an action that sparked a movement and ended the Award's relationship with the petrol company.

We are all in his debt for calling out the truth too many ignore.

It's a record 48.9°C summer. The media doesn't care, and there's a few reasons why

"Extreme heat has caused more deaths in Australia than any other natural hazard", researchers say. But the media no longer cares about global warming.

This is gold.

Yes, they’re reporting climate change but framing it as inevitable, rather than a crime being committed by fossil fuel companies.
