#JenniferHewitt, is back to her key talking point on *how* is the #ALP govt is going to get to #NetZero (clearly still has not read the #ISP) & the excellent #MarkKenny comments that if we still had a #carbonPrice, if the #LNP had not trashed it, we would be a lot closer than we are now! #Insiders

"It's good news that emissions are dropping. It is also very clear that Australia will have to move further and faster to meet and exceed its targets,” says Climate expert.

Record drop for Australia's emissions. What's working and what isn't?
Australia's emissions had the biggest drop ever this year outside the artificial kink in the curve during COVID-19 shutdowns, but there's still a lot of work to do.

This from an Australian journalist I won’t name.

You don’t have to ‘hate Trump’ to know they bloody well shouldn’t have troops in the streets to satisfy a fascist narrative. FFS 🙄

They didn’t ’bring it on themselves’ but Trump and Stephen Miller did. 😡

Not sure why this is worth so many words.

There are plenty of YouTube creators who focus on Australian public transport, it's great, because they deep dive things legacy media just wouldn't do.

ABC sounds butt hurt here, massive beat up. #ABCNews #AusPol #AusPT

"The ultimatum put the Greens in a bind. While reluctant to accept a deal that did not directly combat the climate crisis, party veterans were conscious that any delays would give industry – particularly cashed-up miners – time to water-down or kill the reforms."

"It follows years, if not decades, of campaigning by a relatively small group of environmentalists. Their efforts are evidence that showing up and persistence can succed." #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...
The power dynamic between Labor and mining has shifted
There has been a shift in the power dynamic between Labor and the mining industry. This week's environmental law reform is its embodiment.

In Washington State Fish + Wildlife has conducted mass killings of Bass (Spiny Ray) fish, by super-oxygenating the water. Then they would re-plant Trout. I think it's a fool's errand almost. Good luck Australia. Put a bounty on them + turn your Asian citizens loose. They can make it taste great.

Amazon workers in over 30 countries are striking this 'Black Friday' weekend, demanding fair wages, union rights, and environmental accountability. The "Make Amazon Pay" campaign marks its sixth year of turning the retail giant's busiest sales period into a global day of protest.
Instead of Black Friday, unions call for Make Amazon Pay Day

If you're in a windowless office with a black marker and a paper shredder, removing Trump's name from the Epstein Files, I got a question: Why are you destroying evidence of sex crimes?
You better have a good answer because someday, you're going to be on trial and a jury will be waiting to hear it.

New Zealand had a wonderful scheme to stop young people taking up smoking. Of course their new government ditched it. There's no reason for Australia not to implement the same kind of policy ... except that our gov is owned by its sponsors.

The takeaway for those involved with Fox – staff, guests, and companies that buy ads on the network – should be clear:

You are supporting a company that prioritizes the promotion of #whitenationalism in the U.S.
