Gas is a health hazard, it’s contributing to global heating & threatens the future of our planet. The proposed Middle Arm Gas Precinct poses severe health risks for all #NT residents. In this video from the enquiry, Kate Wylie points out that Middle Arm, is all about gas.

Did you see our ad in The NT News? 📰 We’ve done some polling and the numbers speak for themselves—the overwhelming majority of people in the NT want strong new NT nature laws that halt #deforestation and protect threatened species. Environment Centre NT #NTpol

Betting economic future of NT on landclearing, giving away water plus to rapacious cotton industry, plus gas development that still hasn't even applied for let alone received Fed enviro approval, and ignoring First Nations voices, turns out to be electorally disastrous. Who knew

Labor’s progressive vote has collapsed in the NT election. They’ve bled to the right AND the left. Mass land clearing and water giveaways as seen on 4 Corners #watergrab, Beetaloo fracking, & the Middle Arm gas hub have produced our first Green and progressive Independent.

Independent Justine Davis will win the northern Darwin seat of Johnston, defeating Labor's Joel Bowden. Legislative Assembly numbers now Country Liberal 15, Labor 4, Independents 4, two seats in doubt. abc.net.au/news/elections… #NTVotes

The fallout from a tumultuous four years under Labor has moved voters to extremes in the Northern Territory. canberratimes.com.au/story/8741210/… ✍️📸 by me for Australian Associated Press (AAP)

How long can this keep going on? We must change direction now. Eg, WA and NT mad rush to frack & export gas is beyond reason. ‘Ecological grief’: communities, economy suffer from damage to Great Barrier Reef smh.com.au/politics/feder…

Timor-Leste is standing up to Santos and its Bayu Undan gas project partners to ensure its citizens get a fair share of revenue from its national resources. If Timor can stand up to the energy giants, why can’t our government? #RhetoricalQuestion #auspol smh.com.au/business/compa…

The Northern Territory just voted to have children as young as ten go to prison. I am appalled at the racism in Australia. First we don’t give First Nations people a VOICE and now we vow to lock up their children. And don’t bother telling me it’s not about race because it is.

With the return of the CLP in the recent #NTelection + their promises to support the gas industry (even more) this seems like a good time to repost a few pieces of work like:

A new UN report out today and launched by António Guterres #ClimateAction in Tonga at the Pacific Island Forum highlights the extreme risks of level rise in the Pacific which can only be contained by limiting global warming to 1.5°, the Paris Agreement limit.

The destruction at Lee Point is a powerful reminder of the importance of getting new environment laws right ✅ This is why we need the bills sitting before the Senate to ACTUALLY protect critical threatened species habitat.

A reply...

Re-count for Natasha Fyles' seat of Nightcliff now coming through. Greens currently lead by 42 votes after preferences. Any comment from the people who complained I hadn't called the seat for Labor?

Disappointing the new NT government dropped ministry's for Women, climate change, remote housing and treaty also scrapping the climate change portfolio altogether, environment will now sit with lands and planning. abc.net.au/news/2024-09-1…

93% of likely threatened species habitat cleared after the EPBC Act was in place, occurred WITHOUT being sent to fed govt for approval cos 'self-assessment', nonexistent enforcement, failure to use 'call-in' powers, vociferous lobbying by farming industry abc.net.au/news/2024-09-1…
