  1. “Fracking
    undoubtedly poses a major risk to this huge, quite incredible aquifer that many Aboriginal communities and pastoralists rely on. Unbelievably there has never, ever been a referral of fracking in the Northern Territory … under the EPBC Act.”

  2. Federal Labor ministers at odds over contentious NT #Beetaloo fracked gas pipeline decision. Agriculture minister Julie Collins and Indigenous affairs minister Malarndirri McCarthy expressed concern over pipeline’s construction, and failure by Environment Minister to call in fracking projects using #WaterTrigger in the EPBC Act.

  3. CW: NTPol: Former NT deputy chief minister takes up role with fracking company Tamboran Resources

    They aren’t working for us. The politicians hate us and especially our kids. They are leaving them to cope with the devastation.

    Australia is all talk when it comes to climate action. Watch their actions not their words.

    ‘Nicole Manison has been hired by Tamboran Resources, a US-owned company operating in the NT with which her former government signed lucrative gas contracts.’

  5. Hey we joined Wills Climate and Environment Policy Group who met with our Federal Labor MP Peter Khalil MP this morning discussing #DutyOfCare bill, improving measurement and reduction of #methane emissions, using the new water trigger to assess the #Beetaloo fracking projects, and many other issues.

  6. “Everywhere we looked, we found the GISERA report had significantly underestimated #emissions factors – from the emissions intensity of fracked gas, to #methane loss and leakage, #LNG production, the availability of #offsets and the capture rate for carbon capture,” said Climate Analytics analyst and report author Thomas Houlie.

  7. While the Wills climate and environment advisory group meets with Peter Khalil MP at his office in Coburg, a few of us are outside saying:

    “trick or treat?

    10 new coal and gas projects
    $11 billion p.a. Fossil fuel subsidies
    Who is the real
    Ghoul, Peter Khalil? “

    We handed in a stack of Beetaloo postcards asking for an enhanced water trigger. Enhancing the Water trigger was a Labor election promise.

  8. The Beetaloo gas field is a climate bomb
    How did CSIRO modelling make it look otherwise?

    "If it is allowed to proceed, this single project could undo all of our efforts to cut emissions. Beetaloo and Middle Arm are a climate bomb. They will produce vast volumes of emissions which cannot be offset. The atmosphere doesn’t respond to clever accounting, overly optimistic projections and reliance on offsets – only on how many tonnes of emissions end up there."

    "The International Energy Agency has shown we have to slash demand for fossil fuels 25% by 2030 and 80% by 2050 to keep heating under 1.5°C and limit the worst effects of climate change." >

  13. The ClimateAction Merribek stall was one of a few stalls with zero #TransportEmissions at the Fawkner Festa today, transporting stall contents by bicycle trailer. @MerribekBUG we’re also zero emissions.
    We asked people to sign Bushfire Survivors for Climate Action online petition

    , and a postcard for an enhanced water trigger in environmental laws.
