Wind towers in the ocean act like articulated reefs, attracting fish and corals, and so create new ecosystems. I reckon that makes them beneficial. What we need is green steel to cut the emissions created in making them

Or their dragging anchors destroy corals, sea grass etc? How much environmental damage are those massive cruise ships responsible for?

Well-managed solar farms can boost wildlife - Cambridge study Findings by the RSPB and Cambridge University find solar farms can contribute to and aid biodiversity.

Some good news for a change

Scientists found solar farms had a greater number of species & individual birds per hectare than surrounding arable land

Solar did not pose a threat to national food security, esp when built on low or moderate grade agricultural land

Hack scandal UK. Didn't a prince just take Murdoch down for his newspaper's illegal hacking of everyone from a dead child to a princess and anyone in between they thought they could get a headline from. Fabricating conflict is standard practice for dirty rags

Trump wants to turn Gaza into a casino resort. Ita Buttrose thinks only an ‘activist’ could object - The Shot Media doesn't need to normalise all this heinous Nazi shit, but it will anyway. It is structurally incapable of protecting us from barbarity.

wtf is going on, actually

Ex-Israeli war chief confirms issuing Hannibal Directive to kill own civilians, soldiers on 7 Oct Israeli forces used attack helicopters, drones, and tanks to kill their own civilians and soldiers while blaming the deaths on Hamas

Wow what an admission #gaza #oct7

You mean North Canberra hospital. And agree-I was seen in 20 mins and treated brilliantly in Dec

What if the antisemitic tide has a bigger target: Australia’s stability? If foreign malign forces masterminded some of this wave of attacks, as authorities suspect, Australia will not be alone.

Finally someome trying to make sense of this

Independent credible news sources. Work it out, do the work, check your sources, get across parliament. Over and out of this dull convo

Albanese ‘spooked’ into ditching national environment watchdog – for a second time, critics say Labor’s own environment action network laments delay of EPA legislation, stating ‘terrible loss’ would allow illegal logging to continue

Ha no I don't believe anything on msm. They've delayed the nature positive bill till after the election. But they have apparently backed down on a national epa-a separate bill-which is a broken election promise

Amendments needed to ensure Nature Positive bills live up to their title - Environmental Defenders Office By Frances Medlock, Solicitor, Commonwealth & Government Liaison  During the last parliamentary sitting in late June and early July, the Federal House of Representatives passed legislation to implemen...

That requires the #EPBC amendment bill to actually put to a vote, which hasn't happened. The amendments needed are all right here thanks to #EDO: www.edo.org.au/2024/07/19/a...

WA votes, avoid a nasty anti-epa campaign by Gina. The grossly rich miners have wrecked WA EPA and captured NOPSEMA

Once again #WA miners dictate to Aust. This is a blatant betrayal of #Labor promises on #envirolaw reforms last election. They will lose votes across the nation for this

Surely fake

It's crap law anyway that's desperately needs reform- to actually protect the #environment. And another deeply disappointing betrayal by #Labor

For credibility can you quote the source of this graph. We're talking about good journalism. The quality of a source is everything

US Government Websites Are Disappearing in Real Time A growing number of US government websites have gone offline as of Saturday, including several related to USAID and others focused on youth programs, Africa, and more.

NEW: US government websites are disappearing in real time, including sites for the US Agency for International Development, foreign assistance, neglected diseases, and children in adversity. We analyzed more than 1000 .gov websites to track what's been taken down—and what's next. wrd.cm/4aFMs5A

So distressed to read this. So the US can no longer attack other countries for their #humanrights failures. we saw this coming with Trump's attraction to authoritarians. His lack of compassion for even his own people is on full display

Hmm a 'surrealist twist' may suit the times 😉

And there it is

Better eaten than worn

How districts are responding after Trump cleared the way for immigration arrests at schools President Trump put an end to a policy that restricted federal agents from making immigration arrests at certain locations, including schools. It's already affecting school staff, kids and parents.

I can't believe I'm reading this. The US is a state of terror www.npr.org/hereandnow/2...

A new life for empty offices: Growing kale and cucumbers In some cities, as many as one in four office spaces are vacant. Some start-ups are giving them a second life – as indoor farms growing crops as varied as kale, cucumber and herbs.

Brilliant ##climatefriendly solution to office vacancies plus better food

Great work but I don't understand the reference to #Australia on the map which has seen a radical rise in methane and other GHG emissions from #LNG exports

Surprise surprise, not

I wish it was Australia
