Another thing: if we've only managed to cut real emissions by 4% since 2005, how do you think we're getting the rest of the way to 62-70% by 2035 with the same weak policies?
The land-use accounting tricks that got us to -28% aren't yielding any more.

Just to cut through the backslapping: the very small emissions reduction (2%) is nowhere near enough even for our own local targets. These are also the easiest cuts (ie from local pwr generation bc we are buying solar panels) and are only in one sector.
Exported emissions are 4x bigger and growing.

No problem with the idea that Australian millennials are moving left.
But the survey designers need to reconsider their methodology.
Using support for the major parties as the baseline may be misleading, when both Labor and LNP have been steadily moving right. #auspol

Millennials are the first generation to move left as they age
Millennials are bucking trends, becoming an increasingly progressive voting bloc and rewriting the long-held rules of politics, writes Isabella Higgins.

The Aukus nuclear submarine deal and Australia’s involvement in military conflicts will be considered by a secretive new committee of federal parliament, dubbed a “closed shop” by the Greens over plans to exclude minor parties and independents.
Labor and the Coalition are preparing to pass legislation to establish a joint House and Senate committee on defence as soon as Thursday, with a makeup mirroring the powerful parliamentary joint committee on intelligence and security. Continue reading...

People who recovered from mild–moderate COVID-19 still show persistent lung and vascular inflammation. This ongoing inflammatory response suggests COVID can have systemic, long-term effects that may raise cardiovascular (CV) risk even after symptoms improve.
