For healthy ecosystems, we need stronger nature laws and consistent rules for every industry…. as the #clearing on #MerotherieRd shows, and everyone agrees, #biodiversity offsets do not solve the problem.

We just won in court. Two coal approvals overturned in four months — Mount Pleasant and now Ulan Mod 6. You cannot ignore the climate impacts hitting our communities. Bushfires. Floods. Heatwaves. When we stand up, we win. 🌱⚖️🔥

Adani have scammed Qld out of $100s of millions and the LNP Gov are fine with that.

Great to see Labor and Greens pursuing this in QParl and the media.

‘The barrage of Israeli lies amplified and given credibility by the Western press violates a fundamental tenet of journalism, the duty to transmit the truth to the viewer or reader. It legitimizes mass slaughter. It refuses to hold Israel to account’

The Betrayal of Palestinian Journalists
Western reporters are full partners in the genocide. They amplify Israeli lies, which they know are lies, betraying Palestinian colleagues who are slandered, targeted and killed by Israel.
