"Australia is a major producer of fossil fuels. We all know fossil fuels are the primary driver of the climate crisis," [Ralph Regenvanu] said. "The very least a country like Australia should be doing is stopping future expansion, and it's not doing that." www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Labor’s hypocrisy on coal and gas means Australia’s climate authority, especially with our Pacific neighbours, is falling apart. Pacific Island leaders are boldly fighting to protect their nations from deadly global warming caused by coal & gas. It’s literally a life and death struggle for them.

The internet is so weird sometimes.
A horizontal four-panel meme digital graphic featuring a paleontology joke about whale evolution. In the top-left panel, a brown, four-legged Pakicetus walks toward the right on land, saying, "Indohyus, my brother. I've decided to search for more food in the waters." In the top-right panel, a green-yellow canine-like Indohyus stands facing left, responding, "You will regret this, Pakicetus. The enviornment will force you to adapt," while the head of Pakicetus replies, "I just need some shrimps lol / I will be perfectly fine." The second row features a large black header box on the left reading "50 million years later..." in bold italicized white text, while the rest of the light blue panel depicts the massive side profile of a blue whale making loud vocalizations rendered as text above it ("AAAAOOOOOOOOOOO / OAAAAAAH / MRUUUUUUUUH") alongside a tiny white-tailed deer head looking at it in shock. The bottom panel shows a close-up of the blue whale's head and baleen plates bellowing "BWOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEE" on the left, directly opposite a larger image of a white-tailed deer staring wide-eyed at the viewer on the right with the text "WTF" written above its head.
