Better watch out though or you'll get a taste for having a spine. And then your troubles will really start.

Ten of Australia’s 🇦🇺 top companies lack clear plans to stop using or supporting #FossilFuels https://buff.ly/3I7lUNk #NetZero #EnergyTransition


Like #Tobacco companies, #plastics firms have been lying to the public about their products.

In plastics case it has been the viability of #recycling that has been the subject of deceit by major #corporations.

Given that plastics are related to #fossilfuels, this may come as little surprise given the mendacity & #politics of distraction conducted in the #energy sector.

Its now pretty clear that we've had the knowledge to address our #climatecrisis but its been hidden!

Oxford university has come under heavy criticism after its £6bn endowment fund increased its investment in #FossilFuels just a few years after making a landmark commitment to #divestment https://buff.ly/49umWyz


mmm… “There is overwhelming evidence the oil and gas industry has been misleading the public and regulators around the climate risks of their product for 70 years. Trusting them to be part of the solutions is foolhardy. We’ve now moved into an era of accountability.”

So how do we kick #fossilfuels companies out of influence in government and hold them accountable, especially in #Petrostates like #Australia ?

Let alone access to & lobbying in UNFCCC climate conferences.?
