Field MP supporting the declaration of a #climateemergency “Coal mine expansions r on the table right now. You are kidding yourself if u think u are taking action on climate change. You’re not supporting a wind down of fossil fuels, u are supporting new exploration & new mines.” pic.twitter.com/KSBd3LPKwA

John Graham MP is glad to hear the climate adaptation plan is coming (that’s what they said 6 years ago) but he is moving an amendment to remove the words “climate emergency” from the climate emergency motion. WTAF. #nswpol #climatechange #lismorefloods pic.twitter.com/ot6xcE8tDI

MP Shoebridge supporting motion to declare climate emergency. A growing majority of Australians are asking for REAL ACTION. You can’t say you’re moving to zero carbon but still keep feeding the beast of the coal mine industry. That’s bullshit politics #nswpol #lismorefloods pic.twitter.com/KfIsQXgPfm

The motion that the NSW Government declare a climate emergency was lost 28-4. Ok, phew. There’s no climate emergency.Had me worried we were in some kind of #climatecrisis here in Lismore. Good to know the #lismorefloods was just a bit of heavy rain #nswpol #GovernmentGaslighting pic.twitter.com/jyNcbd10Kf
