Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Labor and Liberal governments have passed 49 anti-protest laws across the country over the last two decades.

It is damning (& history will judge us harshly) but no surprise that 🇦🇺 leads the world on climate protest arrests.
