Australia is being fleeced by the gas industry. We export huge amounts of gas, yet households and businesses are still copping high energy prices and constant pressure from the cost-of-living crisis. It’s hard to see how a system like this is working for ordinary people when the profits are flowing out and the pain stays here.

Former Treasury boss says Australians left with little to show from commodities boom
Why doesn’t Australia collect more tax revenue on the sale of its natural resources? We are a high-income…

Excellent. Watched the whole thing & he nailed it. His last point, that politicians should NOT take jobs in the industries they regulate, who could disagree with that? Also loved Richard Dennis’ killer line that gas companies pay more in PR than they do in PRRT (the gas windfall profits tax). All that wining & dining & political donations don’t come cheap either… they’re playing us for mugs. -
Earth System Science Data: Building a dataset of offshore oil and gas extraction platforms from satellite data (2017–2023). “In this work, we use satellite data and the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform to construct a new database of OOGPs for six major offshore oil and gas basins in the world between 2017 and 2023.”

What a #fracking-waste dispute says about #Ohio’s #energy double standard
Ohio is letting the #oil and #gasindustry put more #toxicwaste underground despite community concerns — even as the state defers to local opponents of #cleanenergy.

Fast Company: If you think Big Oil is trying to manipulate you on social media—you’re right. “Other branches of the fossil fuel industry—including plastic producers and agrichemical companies, both of which depend on oil and gas and their byproducts—have also taken to social media to discourage actions to reduce the use of their products. In a new paper published last week in the […]

It’s outrageous that Australian governments continue to prioritise the gas cartel and foreign interests over affordable electricity for Australians. As Rex Patrick reveals in the latest FOI documents, that’s exactly what’s happening.
In October 2022, nine months after Russia invaded Ukraine, then WA Premier Mark McGowan advised the federal government to follow his state’s lead on managing rising gas and electricity prices.

@ApaulD Why do people believe gas is the backbone of WA’s economy when 90% of it is exported by a few mostly foreign-owned corporations? These companies get most of the gas royalty-free, contribute less than 2% to the state’s budget, pay minimal taxes (if any), and still receive huge taxpayer subsidies.

Industry Knew—and Hid—Dangers of #GasStoves Over 50 Years Ago
Brett WilkinsMar 07, 2023
"Newly uncovered documents published last week by #DeSmog reveal that the leading #GasIndustry trade group knew over 50 years ago that cooking with gas stoves could harm human #health and tried to cover up the evidence.
"The DeSmog revelations regarding the #AmericanGasAssociation (AGA) came as the gas industry is pushing back against climate and public health advocates' efforts to ban new gas stoves amid mounting scientific evidence that the appliances threaten the warming planet and people's health.
"Recent studies—which, among other things, showed that #NitrogenDioxide, #CarbonMonoxide, and ultrafine particles produced by gas stoves cause a range of health problems, including 1 in 8 U.S. cases of childhood #asthma—sparked fast and furious backlash from the gas industry and its congressional boosters.
"'It's less widely known that the gas industry has long sponsored its own research into the problem of indoor air pollution from gas stoves,' wrote DeSmog's Rebecca John. 'Now, newly discovered documents reveal that the American Gas Association was studying the health and indoor pollution risks from gas stoves as far back as the early 1970s—that they knew much more, at a far earlier date, than has been previously documented.""

Scientist Rebellion Germany on Instagram: ""In 2015, investigative journalists discovered internal company memos indicating that the oil company @ExxonMobil has known since the late 1970s that its fossil fuel products could lead to #GlobalWarming with «dramatic environmental effects before the year 2050.»" "#Exxon's internal documents, as well as peer-reviewed studies published by Exxon and ExxonMobil Corp scientists, overwhelmingly acknowledged that #ClimatChange is real and human-caused. By contrast, the majority of Mobil and ExxonMobilCorp's public communications promoted doubt on the matter." "#ExxonMobil didn't just know “something” about global warming decades ago—they knew as much as academic and government scientists knew. But whereas those scientists worked to communicate what they knew, ExxonMobil worked to deny it—including overemphasizing uncertainties, denigrating climate models, mythologizing global cooling, feigning ignorance about the discernibility of human-caused warming, and staying silent about the possibility of stranded fossil fuel assets in a carbon-constrained world." ❗#EXXONKNEW❗ [Source: Supran, G., Rahmstorf, S. and Oreskes, N.

A #Pennsylvania study suggests links between #fracking and #asthma, #lymphoma in #children
Story by By MARC LEVY, Associated Press, August 15, 2023
"Children who lived closer to #NaturalGas wells in heavily drilled Pennsylvania were more likely to develop a relatively rare form of cancer, and nearby residents of all ages had an increased chance of severe asthma reactions, researchers said in reports released Tuesday evening.
"The taxpayer-funded research by the University of Pittsburgh adds to a body of evidence suggesting links between the #GasIndustry and certain health problems. The researchers found what they called significant associations between gas industry activity and two ailments: asthma and a relatively rare type of cancer in children called lymphoma."

‘Mind-Boggling’ Methane Emissions From Turkmenistan Revealed [remotesensing]

[I do wonder how, say, USA, Middle East, etc fossil fuel-related methane emissions would have looked decades ago if we had had these technologies – and the inclination(s) – to measure them]
“New satellite methods allow to identify 29 super-emitters in Turkmenistan, most of them linked to inactive flaring venting massive amounts of gas…”
