Young Australian outback caravan influencer couple complaining about how a lap of Australia costs $20k in fuel. Living costs over $700 a week. We need to reimagine the Australian experience. 🤔 The whole big rig setup is coming crashing down with the fossil fuels that feed it.

Laser-scanning surveys reveal that the ancient Aquiry civilisation was bigger than previously thought, building tens of thousands of large geometric earthworks in what was once thought to be pristine wilderness

What an opportunity.

Pauline Hanson is such a fucking coward. Imagine needing to ban the wet lettuce leaves of the ABC, Age and Guardian from your events?!? How could any Prime Ministerial contender possibly handle a meek tut-tutting from limp liberal media?! It's farcical. Auspol is pathetic atm.

Why does the ABC push out this AFP crap. I mean it isn’t a Russian holiday spot, it’s 🇺🇦 territory. The Ukrainian children they stole are probably cleaning their Moscow houses while they holiday.

No, we don't get easy single metric :( Observed imbalance shows ongoing warming But oceans absorb most of excess heat Full climate-energy budget includes aerosols, cloud changes, ice/snow albedo loss, other human-driven surface changes Greenhouse gases main long-term driver of imbalance and warming

The energy imbalance has doubled and so warming has increased. Seems like the metric that’s in charge.

This is a very well researched and thoughtful analysis of the human cost of continued warming, examining the claim that 3 billion could die if/when 3ºC of warming is reached later this century.

Warming is now accelerating to the point where 2ºC will be passed next decade and 3ºC is looking difficult to avoid. There are three levers that we still have available to avoid this outcome: decarbonisation, carbon removal and solar geoengineering. drtomharris.substack.com/p/the-3-leve...

The 3 levers that could stabilise the climate

Decarbonisation, Carbon Dioxide Removal and Solar Geoengineering all have the potential to reduce the Earth’s Energy Imbalance. Will we need all three to stabilise the climate?
