As someone "working" in the climate activism space, it's incredibly frustrating seeing fossil gas companies talking about supplying clean energy. When they are supplying gas, which is literally a greenhouse gas. That would be predictable propaganda if I didn't constantly find that my politicians repeat it in their speeches.
Take a look at this speech from earlier this year by Federal Resources Minister Madeleine King
https://www.minister.industry.gov.au/.../speech-powering...
Was it written by a Gas industry spokesperson? is Minister King one?
It isn't any better at the State Level. With the recent actions by Disrupt Burrup Hub, we have seen Premier Cook display a shocking lack of understanding about how the Gas industry is driving climate change and what climate activists are actually asking for.
Didn't anyone find it strange that they both just casually called Meg O'Neil to express sympathies? They have sympathies with Meg because they are effectively colleagues, they have a personal relationship they move in the same circles. Did they personally call the people of the Fitzroy River Basin to personally give their sympathies when climate change-fuelled rains washed their houses away?
