It’s not about Meatloaf. It’s not about me. It’s not about what some people call me. It’s not about left or right. It’s all about scientific facts. And that we’re not aware of the situation. Unless we start to focus everything on this, our targets will soon be out of reach.

Paris ordering 800 electric buses. The biggest #electric bus purchase in Europe. (But not the world: Shenzen already has 16k #EVs buses) Paris banning diesel cars by 2025 + petrol cars by 2030 @Rita_Saffioti: why is Perth buying 900 diesel buses? #wapol – at Perth, Western Australia

We're sending a message to politicians that we want policies for people seeking asylum that are humane, not cruel. #ChooseHumane today to help us achieve change #auspol choosehumane.org.au
I believe I’ve coined a new term : to “Ardern Up” - meaning to show strength, decency, compassion and true leadership. Aus politicians, you really need to “Ardern Up” #Auspol #AusVotes2019

Trump Admin threat to retaliate against nations that exercise sovereign right in UN to oppose US position on Jerusalem is beyond outrageous. Shows @realDonaldTrump expects blind loyalty and subservience from everyone—qualities usually found in narcissistic, vengeful autocrats.
