When it comes to the transition from coal and gas to clean energy, the Morrison Government has shown its priority is protecting the big polluters in the fossil fuel industry from market forces rather than protecting Australians from the impacts of climate change. 

Our priority is bringing you the important stories of the day, regardless of which media outlet publishes them. Inclusion of stories in this newsletter does not constitute endorsement of the media outlet or the views and statements contained within them.

All Australians need environmental news.

Essential information delivered through a strong, trusted and diverse media is essential for the protection of nature, and the achievement of a world capable of nurturing life in all its magnificent diversity.
