News out today shows big utes designed to cary cargo are better at killing pedestrians than smaller vehicles designed to cary people did you know the popularity of these behemoths is based on a range of subsidies? But the govt is inquiring into subsidies for EVs… thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...

Australia’s sales of big cars are out of control

Australia has a big “big car” problem; we have too many SUVs and utes, and we keep getting lots more of them.

Powerful words and petition from the @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social. Please read and consider signing. #auspol #nswpol #antisemitism #racism #GunViolence #diversity #community jewishcouncil.good.do/unity/jewish...

Text: Petition: We will not be divided after Bondi. Sign the petition in solidarity with Jewish people fighting back against the politicians and lobbyists using the Bondi Chanukah massacre to push their divisive agenda.

On Sunday at Bondi we witnessed the appalling consequences of hatred and how it breeds radicalisation and violence. But as the Jewish community and the whole country grieved, politicians went on the attack, exploiting the tragedy to sow division and pit our communities against each other.

But we all deserve to feel safe, no matter our religion or where we come from. We cannot allow our grief, fear and anger to be used as a political weapon to spread division and hate.

Jewish communities are beautifully diverse, culturally and politically. Antisemitism and racism flourish when the diversity of any community is erased. The far-right Israeli government does not speak for Jewish people in Australia and is not interested in our safety. Only we can create safety for each other.

We are asking all Australians to unite behind the call to end antisemitism, racism and gun violence in the wake of this unthinkable tragedy.

The only way to build lasting community strength and safety is by coming together.

Jewish Council Australia

"I’ve seen a lot of coverage of Wright’s trip to Europe to sell American gas. Very little of that coverage has plainly called out Wright’s deceitful rhetoric, and none has pointed out how Wright’s rhetoric serves to enrich himself at the expense of ordinary Americans" Such a good piece here:

Graphic shows three line graph time series of monthly carbon dioxide abundance in ppm (blue line), monthly methane abundance in ppb (red line), and monthly nitrous oxide in ppb (purple line). Graphs are all shown from January 1984 through May 2025/August 2025. Current levels of CO2 are 425 ppm. Current levels of methane are 1934 ppb. Current levels of nitrous oxide are 339 ppb. All graphs show long-term increasing trends along with some interannual variability and seasonality.

"The project will be required to reduce its emissions every year and reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 under the Albanese Government’s strengthened Safeguard Mechanism." This is only true if you ignore emissions from burning gas the project produces, which is pretty much all of them.
