I'm ecstatic. I've watched my community of Lismore drowned by Labor + LNP govts, koalas burned alive by bushfires, livelihoods torn about by the coal and gas industry. These decisions give communities a glimmer of hope that they've never had before!

Incredible news: Approval for the largest #CoalMine expansion in NSW has been overturned, after a community environment group successfully argued the impact of the project's greenhouse gas emissions was not considered by the planning commission!

From The Guardian: "The court found the commission was required and failed to consider the impacts of all emissions on the local environment, including from the exported emissions – known as scope 3 emissions – when the coal is sold and burnt overseas."

Before this is allowed to create confusion, politicians make the laws and the courts interpret them. This is the fundamental division of power. It’s that simple.

Nanas joined a packed public gallery today at NSW Parliament House as Kobi Shetty gave a powerful second reading to repeal NSw protest laws. NSW stands condemned by the UN, human rights lawyers and organisations for its anti-protest laws. The worst in Australia.
