    It’s so much worse than the title implies.

    Less than four-fifths of Australia’s coal production is emitting 40% more than the reported total of all mines.

    and we’re still approving NEW mines.

      We desperately need a Greens government. This rightwing shit is going to kill us all.

        The environment isn’t even the worst part of these dipshits and their policies.

        Many of those right wing dipshits are literally on TV claiming everything is woke, and that trans people are having a worse impact on Australia than the fact that big churches are a tax free business which are buying up real estate, and their pastors are getting busted for sexual abuse

        Furthermore, nuclear is somehow more important than them making everyone feel unsafe and destroying their mental health.

            I’m in Vic. Never said I was in US…

            Just because I respond to US politics doesn’t mean I don’t keep track of it (because their shit flows down to people like Clive).

            And there have been attack ads on TV about things being “woke” and the right wing is trying to scare people into thinking foreigners are responsible for all of our issues (whereas, a huge amount of the issues we have seem to be from meth junkies)

            The environment bs that spread about solar and national parks is only just one of those mega shit policies from them. Their shitness is diverse

    This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone

    What is an actual surprise is all the dickheads here in Australia still defending coal. Coal doesn’t benefit you in any way
