Labor loses its spine on renewables as premier throws new energy minister, and transition, under the bus
One minute, Victoria's new energy minister was promising industry stakeholders that Labor will hold the line on renewables. The next minute, her boss was saying the exact opposite.

Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

The US is so paranoid about Chinese tech, they've forced Polestar to withdraw from the US. Polestar is the best alternative to Tesla with high quality sedans, not to mention the excellent Android integration. What an absolute mess and self-own by the government. finance.yahoo.com/markets/stoc...

More than 30 years! In 1959 H-bomb physicist Edward Teller warned the American Petroleum Institute of "chemical contamination of the atmosphere" by heat-trapping CO2. By 2000, cars must be powered by H fuel cells, or by direct conversion of sunlight to electricity or all coastal cities would drown.

Not sure what it is about Labors seeming inability to clearly explain the benefits of their changes to NG & CGT discounts. Shorten was exactly the same, seemed to forget to mention many of the benefits in interviews. If they don’t sharpen up quickly it’ll cost them seats.

I always try as hard as I can not to agree with Canavan, but cancelling Melb-Bris freight line is a very bad decision. It stacks up economically, will take thousands of trucks off the road, & will only cost more to inevitably build in the future. Also bad politically as it will lose Labor votes
