For @thepointau.bsky.social, I decided to do the unthinkable and just actually check whether Australia's gas exports are being a magical climate solution and displacing shittonnes of Asian coal

It’s time to change the UNFCCC process so profit-driven polluters don’t continue to derail critical climate policy.

Woodside are climate criminals making obscene profits destroying the planet.
They contribute a tiny portion of their profits through philanthropy and this is part of how they justify their continued operation & destruction.
To stop them we need to stop working with them...

I've loved seeing the joy that the end of the Monash Woodside partnership has brought people.
Criticizing fossil fuel sponsorship can feel lonely, but it turns out, lots of people want their education & workplace free from climate criminals.
We can have nice things without them.

The Woodside Monash Partnership is over...there's some concern this may be permuted into a situationship through continued Woodside funding of research BUT overall a strong message that taking fossil fuel funding is NOT aligned with sustainability.
