A great bill from David Pocock! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 The govt must have a duty of care to young people from climate harming projects, such as #gas belching #Beetaloo. Will you support? Anthony Albanese Tanya Plibersek Chris Bowen Mark Butler MP #auspol theguardian.com/australia-news…
At DEA we are very excited about the day of action in Canberra next Tuesday, where DEA members, in allyship with the NT Paediatricians’, protest fracking in Beetaloo Basin and the Middle Arm “Sustainable” Development Project. #SayNotoBeetaloo #DontfrackourHealth Anthony Albanese
Doctors for the Environment stand as allies with NT paediatricians against Beetaloo and Middle Arm #DontFrackOurHealth #SayNotoBeetaloo Anthony Albanese Chris Bowen
Today I joined Dr Monique Ryan MP with 100 doctors from around 🇦🇺 to call on the Govt to withdraw $1.5B funding for the Middle Arm petrochemical hub on Darwin harbour. Middle Arm will turn Darwin into a cancer alley and unlock the Beetaloo Basin to fracking.
Darwin's Middle Arm project is a ‘grand experiment’ with our climate. And as doctors said in Canberra yesterday, it’s bad for people and planet. @Gudanji4country @NatashaFylesMLA Anthony Albanese David Pocock Dr Monique Ryan MP 🌏 Zali Steggall MP theconversation.com/darwins-sustai… via The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand
Despite the rhetoric emissions are rising. It’s time to ditch harmful unhealthy fossil fuels and put the health of people and planet above the profits of coal and gas Anthony Albanese Chris Bowen Tanya Plibersek theguardian.com/business/grogo…
Shame on you Tanya Plibersek Anthony Albanese Chris Bowen You know full well the harm you cause. Every coal mine, every gas field harms the people of this country. #auspol #climateemergency miragenews.com/plibersek-appr…
DEA is proud to stand with Anjali Sharma on the Duty of Care bill. "We protect our children from smoking ... from gambling, from alcohol, to not consider the climate change impacts on our children is an omission" Dr Kate Wylie David Pocock #Auspol2024 youtu.be/fhmGkJDtLtU?si…
The govt collects more money from HECS than it does from the PRRT. Australians are missing out on revenue for public services while fossil fuel companies make record profits. We need to increase the PRRT #auspol ADD YOUR NAME to the petition: > nb.australiainstitute.org.au/increase_the_p…
