At least €16 BILLION: the estimated cost of France’s 2026 heatwaves and wildfires, according to a parliamentary report.
People are hurting. They need real funding to stay safe: cooler homes and schools, early-warning systems, firefighters and healthcare workers.
TAX obscene oil and gas profits. Make polluters pay.

Loophole allowing new coal and gas to avoid stricter climate laws
By Jake Evans
The Climate Council says coal and gas mines are using a "loophole" to expand operations and add new emissions while avoiding stricter emissions laws for new coal and gas.

Minns government’s only meeting before reopening gas exploration was with fossil fuel lobby
"The peak body for the oil and gas industry was the only stakeholder the New South Wales government met with before a decision to reopen gas exploration approvals for the first time in more than a decade, documents released under freedom of information laws suggest.
In April, the NSW minister for natural resources, Courtney Houssos, announced the government would open applications for gas exploration in two areas in the far west, the Bancannia and Pondie Range troughs, for the first time since a 2014 freeze on new licences in the state."
Labor once again screwing over the Australian People and proving without a doubt that they simply CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

They note that in addition to advances in climate fingerprinting, global warming has also advanced: The post-2009 period included the 10 warmest years in instrumental surface temperature records, enhancing the signal of human-caused warming relative to the "noise" of natural variability.

Global prices for rice, sugar, cotton, and pulses are surging due to severe climate shocks, reduced production forecasts in major growing regions, and soaring shipping costs, adding to worldwide inflationary pressures
Rice prices have hit two-year highs, pressured by tight supplies and rising logistical expenses, with container costs surging from $5,000 to nearly $55,000
