As if we don’t have enough #Grifters making a pile on #Australia ‘s slack #TaxRevenue from #GasExports here is another one to add to that pile:
“Amid renewed debate over whether Australia is getting enough tax from its gas exports, an investigation by the ABC shows how one LNG producer uses Singapore to help boost its profits.
That company is Shell, the global oil and gas super major, which is the world’s largest trader of the fuel.
Over the eight years to 2024, Shell’s LNG trading and marketing arm in Singapore made billions of dollars in profit. And it did so by buying LNG from producer countries such as Australia before on-selling the gas at a significant mark-up.”
I wonder how many more #FossilFuel #TaxEvasionSchemes are operating that we don’t know about. Wake up #AlboPM we’re all being had here!

(3) Burning plastic creates toxic #dioxin
But with no trees for fuel the poorest on the planet are shamed for burning plastic to cook food.#MAGA = Make #Amatil (Coca-Cola) Great - Pacific Garbage Patch - Again ?

@WideEyedCurious What - by #geoengineering? No thanks very much. How about reducing, then eliminating, the extraction & burning of #fossilfuels, & ending the #destruction of #forests & #wetlands? Or is that just too simple & straightforward, & too liable to upset #fossilfuel #companies & their #wealthy #shareholders?

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/may/10/saudi-aramco-profits-jump-despite-conflict-middle-east. It's not "despite", it's "because", @guardian. The #fossilfuel firms are benefitting from the high #prices of #oil & #LNG, caused by the #US & #Israeli #war against #Iran. One might even suspect the war was being conducted just so they can make even fatter #profits, just confirming that #human #life - including the lives of #children - matters far, far less than they do, @ZackPolanski.

#Renewables reached nearly 50% of global #electricity capacity last year
But #fossilfuel additions and #AI-era power demand still muddy the #climate math
International Renewable Energy Agency's 2026 Renewable Capacity Statistics report, found renewables dominated new power additions, accounting for 85.6% of global capacity expansion. #Solar, in turn, was the dominant renewable technology, accounting for nearly three-quarters of last year's renewable capacity additions.
