Behind any decision in the exploration of the Rosebank & Jackdaw oil & gas fields, should be the balance between any purported economic benefits & the long term costs of the environmental effects of such development(s).
As environmental costs seem to outweigh any economic benefits, taking a long(er) term view these fields should be left alone; whether that's Andy Burnham's decision will indicate much about the Govt.s stance on climate change.

Woodside has scrapped long-term emissions and clean energy targets
"Woodside Energy has scrapped its long-term emissions and clean energy targets, even after enjoying a period of windfall oil profits caused by the Iran conflict.
Under the new chief executive, Liz Westcott, Woodside is doubling down on fossil fuels while shifting the company further away from clean energy and decarbonisation targets.
The company said that its new energy business would be guided by “customer demand and commercial markets”.
Woodside is one of a growing list of large oil companies amassing profits because of the Iran conflict at the same time as emissions-fuelled climate change affects communities around the world.
A recent run of deadly heatwaves in the northern hemisphere, made more likely and more severe by burning fossil fuels, has reignited calls for those same fossil fuel companies to shoulder the growing environmental costs of rising temperatures."

🌳Berlin hat rund 439.000 Straßenbäume – und verliert netto etwa 1.100 pro Jahr, durch heiße Sommer, versiegelte Böden und sinkendes Grundwasser. Dabei sind Straßenbäume für ein lebenswertes Klima in der Stadt unverzichtbar: Schatten, bessere Luft, weniger Lärm.
👉Im Kurs "Klimaanpassung selbst gestalten – als Baumpat*in" gehen wir nach einer kurzen Einführung raus in den Kiez und lernen zwei praktische Ansätze kennen: die Berliner Stadtbaumkampagne und Bewässerungsmöglichkeiten wie die eigene Regenwassertonne. Praxisnah, mit Diskussion und Birgit Eichmann, Projektmanagerin bei Renewables Academy (RENAC).

Woodside & its CEO are climate criminals.

Knowingly destroying our climate. For obscene profit. It’s criminal. Law without enforcement & repercussions is taking the piss #auspol

Food production isn't just a single step but an occupation that is involved with many steps like land preparations.
We are also preparing this land for garden eggs that will help fight hunger in some days to come!
Gardening is the planting food but full of hope to many vulnerable families in Central Uganda

This is a staggering number. Good thing climate change isn't real (yes, it's sarcasm).

Dopey Dan Tehan, the world's first ai-powered robot with a broad Australian accent, has been programmed by his Liberal Party to advocate drilling for gas in the far north Betaloo Basin and building pipelines to bring it down to southern states, a distance over 3,000 kms. Dan also says building transmission lines to link renewable energy projects to consumers is too expensive, so he must think drilling for gas and piping it 3,000 kms+ is cheaper than firing renewable electrons around 900 kms (SA to NSW) or 500kms (Vic to NSW)*. Yep. Even as half the northern hemisphere is burning and Reno Nevada is being evacuated after its average temperature has risen 4° in the past decade, driven by global warming. Dan's programming needs a reset. #auspol #climatechange #fossilfuels #Liberalparty
*The cost per-km for high-voltage lines and a gas pipelines are about the same. -

Only one (sarcasm) problem. Our living planet is dying from irresponsible over & mis-use. “I want you to act as though our house is on fire. Because it is”

No sovereignty or security on a dead planet.

9.1 Solarpunk Presents: Eating for the Planet through Fork Ranger
On this episode from Season 9 of Solarpunk Presents, we sit down with Frank Holleman from Fork Ranger - the fact is that the top 10% richest people on the planet are responsible for a large majority of consumer emissions and so eating for the planet can make a difference when we know that 1/3rd of our emissions are based on our food system. Frank breaks down the details of what it means to make great food choices, and that it's not all or nothing; you can take many paths towards being more aware of how you eat and what it means. We can always choose to eat foods that require less energy to produce, vegetables versus energy intensive meat, even if the vegetable is shipped. We also play a fun game with randomized ingredients and Frank gives us some surprising recipes!
