WA Premier Roger Cook says the images of bleached Ningaloo Reef makes him want to sell more of the state's fossil gas to Asia.
Gas is a dirty polluting fossil fuel just as bad, if not worse, than coal in terms of climate impact.
Cook is wilfully burying his head in the sand.

NSW guidelines require new coal projects to mitigate their emissions.
Despite this, Glencore and Yancoal have failed to include any such measures in their plan to expand the HVO coal mine.
This project would release a million tonnes of direct GHG pollution next year alone.

Santos has been fined a pittance for spilling 25,000 litres of oil into waters of WA's north west coast.
Dead dolphins were found following the spill.
In 2023, Santos made a profit of $1.4 billion. It's hard to see how a $10,000 fine is going to teach this company a lesson.

It's time we put the blame where it belongs - squarely on these multinational parasites.
It's time we electrified. It's time we turned down the gas.

Now that they're in government, we're keen to make sure they stick to their promise.

We've rallied outside BHP's AGM in Brisbane today to call out the company's greenwashing.
BHP is trying to massively expand its Central QLD coal mines, contradicting its own so-called climate transition action plan.
One planned project would mine coal beyond 2100.

BREAKING - horrible news! The Albanese Government has just approved THREE massive new coal mine expansions - Mt Pleasant, Narrabri Underground, and Ashton. These projects will be responsible for more than 1.4 billion tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions combined.

There's a complex, nuanced debate to be had over where windfarms are built, but as for what powers the "pits of hell" - well, we reckon it's probably gas.

The view from Gladstone’s waterfront right now, 12pm Monday. My mum’s at lunch and text me this from the cafe. This is the gas industry.

Frack Free NT's Pete Callender was on ABC radio Darwin recently dishing out the facts on fracking.
Fracking threatens the NT's communities, climate, and precious groundwater. Economic predictions by industry and government are vastly overblown. It's not worth the risk.

It's now up to @tanya_plibersek to decide the project's fate.
PS, it's not every day that mining companies publish images of the endangered animals whose homes they want to bulldoze

Expanding the so-called water trigger to apply to shale gas projects was a key promise by the Albanese Government in the lead up to the last federal election, as you can see from this corflute used outside polling stations by Lingiari MP Marion Scrymgour.
Yesterday during the Middle Arm Senate Inquiry, Federal Enviro Dept officials confirmed they would not recommend new water protection laws be applied to Tamboran's latest fracking project, despite it requiring more than 1 billion litres of groundwater.

It took the NT's EPA four days to get to the site of a massive fish kill downstream of fracking operations.
The EPA's testing is inconclusive.
This is unacceptable, particularly when the NT Government wants to let fracking companies drill thousands of wells across the region.

Sorry little snipe, but the QLD @StevenJMiles Government would rather let Whitehaven build a massive new coal mine than preserve what's left of your habitat.
As well as its massive emissions, Whitehaven's Winchester South coal mine, approved today by the QLD Gov, will also clear a whole heap of habitat that's home to endangered animals like koalas, greater gliders, and the Australian Painted Snipe.
