Degraded ecosystems - Australia's biodiversity report card leaves out fossil fuel support

"An international agreement, the Global Biodiversity Framework, called for governments to identify and stop financially supporting industries that harm the environment.But in its first report on its progress towards stopping biodiversity decline, Australia neglected to provide any estimate of its financial support to the fossil fuels industry."

"Australia's first progress report, submitted earlier this month, noted there was $242 million of financial support to the agriculture and fishing sectors that could harm the environment."

"Independent studies have suggested one to three species of invertebrates have gone extinct every week in Australia since European colonisation. "

A habitable climate?

Australian governments subsidising fossil fuel use by more than $30,000 a minute, analysis finds

"Australian federal and state government subsidies that encourage fossil fuel use and help drive the climate crisis will reach $16.3bn this year after leaping by nearly 10%, according to a new analysis."

"It found federal and state governments will pay or forgo the equivalent of $31,020 each minute in 2025-26 to subsidise companies producing and using coal, gas and especially oil, mostly in the form of diesel." >>

Businesses Can Either Lead Transformative Change or Risk Extinction

Businesses Can Either Lead Transformative Change or Risk Extinction All Businesses Depend on and Impact Nature

"Business-as-usual Incentives are Driving Nature’s Decline
The loss of biodiversity is among the most serious threats to business
100+ Concrete Actions for Governments, Financial Actors & Civil Society"

"Every business depends on biodiversity, and every business impacts biodiversity. The growth of the global economy has been at the cost of immense biodiversity loss, which now poses a critical and pervasive systemic risk to the economy, financial stability and human wellbeing. This is a central finding of a landmark new report published today by the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES)."

“Yet the twisted reality is that it often seems more profitable to businesses to degrade biodiversity than to protect it. Business as usual may once have seemed profitable in the short term, but impacts across multiple businesses can have cumulative effects, aggregating to global impacts, which can cross ecological tipping points. The Report shows that business as usual is not inevitable – with the right policies, as well as financial and cultural shifts, what is good for nature is also what is best for profitability. To get there, the Report offers tools for choosing more effective measurements and analysis.”

"The Report provides more than 100 specific examples of concrete actions that can be taken, across each of these five components, by businesses, governments, financial actors and civil society."

"...Millions are dying each year because of failure to tackle climate crisis."

“We are living through the era of climate consequences. Heatwaves, floods, drought and disease are no longer distant warnings – they’re here now.
The continued burning of fossil fuels not only heats the planet but also produces air pollution, causing millions of deaths a year."

@peterdutoit

There's a fund from which to draw to foot the bill of the disaster costs: current subsidies to the fossil industry.

7 trillion dollars in subsidies for fossil fuel (oil and gas) companies, per year, world wide, says the International Monetary Fund:

https://www.imf.org/en/Blogs/Articles/2023/08/24/fossil-fuel-subsidies-surged-to-record-7-trillion

1.3 trillion in direct subsidies and the rest in indirect, implicit subsidies.

Fossil Fuels: "The cost of inaction will always outweigh the cost of action."

"One and a half million Australians are at risk from sea levels rising by 2050 unless climate change can be limited, Australia’s first national climate risk assessment has warned. "

"Heatwave deaths in Sydney, for example, would rise by more than 400 per cent under a 3C scenario, and would still double under 1.5C scenario."

No new coal or gas and more transparency

"We are hurtling towards disaster, eyes wide open […] It’s time to wake up and step up […] leave oil, coal and gas in the ground where they belong." António Guterres

"The science says we do need to rush. It is now over 30 years since the Australian government first accepted that climate change was real, was primarily caused by fossil fuels, and was an enormous risk to Australia, but centrists like Albanese are still telling us that it’s not yet time to stop building new gas or coal mines."

Oh, oops.

Just so it's clear WHO is paying for these subsidies:

#FossilFuelSubsidies: G7 nations ignore targets and increase taxpayer funding to record levels

"Despite promising a fossil fuel subsidies phaseout by 2025, #G7 governments continue to increase taxpayer spend.

In total, subsidies have increased by 15 per cent since 2016 to a total of $1.36 trillion (€1.32 trillion) in 2023."

https://www.euronews.com/green/2025/02/04/fossil-fuel-subsidies-g7-nations-ignore-targets-and-increase-taxpayer-funding-to-record-le

Meanwhile, #FossilFuelSubsidies from G20 nations alone amount to US $ 1.1 tn.

"G-20 governments and state-owned bodies provided US $1.1 trillion in fossil-fuel support in 2022 – by far the highest volume for at least a decade. The main driver of this increase was the global energy crisis as policymakers sought to support consumers. However, $500 billion went to producers and utilities, some of which saw record profits that year."

"SUV company car drivers receive very high fossil fuel subsidies via #CompanyCar taxation, the study also finds. Compared to a private buyer, they pay up to €8,900 per year less in taxes for driving a polluting #SUV. This also explains why companies are registering twice as many climate harming SUVs than private households."

"if we stopped giving that money (subsidies) to the fossil fuel companies, we could cover the ENTIRE COST of suppporting our friends in the GLOBAL SOUTH and have enough left over to COMPLETELY fund the global expansion of RENEWABLES required by 2030 to actally achieve NET ZERO in 2050"

the cost of fixing climate change becomes so great that we have no money left for anything else"

The 2023 state of the climate report: Entering uncharted territory: "Time is up."

“Life on our planet is clearly under siege...The statistical trends show deeply alarming patterns of climate-related variables and disasters. We also found little progress to report as far as humanity combating climate change.”

"Fossil fuel subsidies roughly doubled between 2021 and 2022 globally, from $US531 billion to just over $US1 trillion.

This year Canadian wildfires have pumped more than 1 gigaton of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, greater than Canada’s total 2021 greenhouse emissions.

In 2023, there have already been 38 days with global average temperatures more than 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.

The highest average Earth surface temperature ever recorded was in July, and there’s reason to believe it was the highest surface temperature the planet has seen in the last 100,000 years."

“Our goal is to communicate climate facts and make policy recommendations...It is a moral duty of scientists and our institutions to alert humanity of any potential existential threat and to show leadership in taking action.”

@BrendanCarton great piece of science reporting on anti-climate protest laws and what NSW/Australia🇦🇺 is actually doing in exacerbating the #climatecrisis.

So, 17 new or expanded coal projects in the pipeline in NSW alone, 114 new #FossilFuel coal and gas projects around Australia as a whole. No phaseout of #FossilFuelSubsidies running at over $11 billion per year.

In case you're wondering what happens when #climate protesters sit down on a Dutch highway. This is not anything like the #DAPL protests.

Extinction Rebellion NL is highly organised, from sticking to the one demand - end #FossilFuelSubsidies - to designated police liaisons. The #WaterCannon is rented from Germany. It gets turned up a little harder every day. Every day, people show up on the #A12 highway into The Hague. Signups go into October.
