Our #DarlingBaaka was sick then. #BlindFreddy could see it.

Overall, the project found that the poor river condition in most indexes was due to the alteration of natural flow by water extraction and river regulation.
Yep.

For months, people in remote Indigenous communities have been reporting skin rashes after going in the water, and a report confirms something is wrong with the river.

Big Oil is using native advertising to "disguise their ads in news outlets" and promote "controversial technologies like carbon capture as climate solutions, portray fossil fuel companies as climate-friendly, or misrepresent their role in the energy transition" finds author @commscholar.bsky.social.
These ads are poisoning trust in media
‘Native advertising' allows fossil fuel companies to disguise their ads in news outlets. A new book argues the practice undermines journalistic credibility.

Yep, totally agree.
During a roadtrip around Tasmania several years ago, was surprised to witness these industrial-scale ‘eye sores’.
A visual scar on such a picturesque landscape, in a state where tourism is a major contributor to the economy.
Surprised they were ever permitted in the first place.

Treating animals with antibiotics is a very, very bad idea (unless it's for a individual animal who is sick) and especiallyin a marine environment. This is absolutely appalling. Do not buy Tasmanian salmon. Ever. To the politicians who supported this industry- You were so wrong.
Lobster fishery off Bruny Island in TAS closed on eve of the opening of fishing season due to antibiotic use by the salmon farms.
No indication of how long for. Must be a devastating blow for fishermen approaching Xmas.
