Their profit, our cost: Should fossil fuel companies pay for climate disasters?
Ofc, obvs.
JFC! 
Will there ever be a time when these execrable RWNJs finally just STFU?
https://social.chinwag.org/@sbs_bot/114134168821003916 So many online & other media reports of all the damage & dislocation caused by #TCAlfred, even though the actual cyclonic aspect, wrt sheer wind speeds, had greatly diminished by the time of the eventual landfall.
Ergo, can we grasp the immensity of the damage & carnage that will result, next time the luck runs the other way, & direct hits on high-population centres arises with rating still at 2, 3... or higher?
Do we keep sticking our heads in the sand & denying / ignoring all this, so that we can continue being climate criminals??

Whilst tis obvs that Lab will win again, i feel no positive passion at all about that. WA is totes state-captured by the abominable gas industry, & WA Lab have zero ethical superiority over their Liebs-Nats opponents. They're all climate-criminal arseholes.

‘More frequent, intense’: PM puts climate front and centre for election
Gaaaah, we know all this, you dweeb. We've known it for decades. We also know that you keep funding fossilfools via undeserved obscene tax breaks & subsidies, & doing their work by approving new fossilfool projects & expansions, plus demonising protesters instead of the actual climate criminals. You simply have NO credibility in this space, dear PM.

"The hypermarketization of everything", Quinn Slobodian, 2025
Bean counters are attempting to put a monetary value on the complexity of nature
Think of a logged forest.
"The value of the timber produced counts towards Australia’s gross domestic product. But cutting trees down also produces a loss. For example, the forest is no longer there for the community to enjoy. And it no longer provides “services” such as filtering water and preventing soil erosion."
"There are many reasons to measure the value of those services. For example, governments might then be able to charge a logging company a licence fee which reflects the community value of the forest. A government may decide the forest is too valuable to allow logging at all, or the fee may just be set too high for any company to find it profitable to log it."
"To date, the value lost when trees are cut down, or other ecosystems are damaged, has not been included in the national accounts. The new environmental accounts seek to change this."

Documentation of the systematic destruction of Tuckers Nob forests
"Presentation for Friends of Tuckers Nob on the history and significance of Tuckers Nob State Forest and why it must be included in the NSW Government's proposed 'Great' Koala National Park. Based on a recent preliminary report submitted to government, showing the original forest and koala sightings, with a list of moratorium areas (including Tuckers). All the most recent developments, bringing the viewer up to date. This is why we need a #GreaterKoalaPark, with no logging."
The video has a link to the report containing the results (maps) of the investigations by Dr Tim Cadman and local community-based citizen scientists:

Human-mediated extirpation of wildlife through logging
"Before industrial logging in south-west British Columbia, there were nearly 1,000 spotted owls in the old-growth forests. But they have vanished in recent decades, victims of habitat destruction. Activists have tried in vain to hold the government to account, alleging protected species laws have failed to prevent the extirpation of the owls."
"Efforts to revive the population have failed, with a pair of owls released from the breeding program dying within months. The lone female in the wild is also believed to have died."
