Proving our place in the cosmos already HAS extraordinary evidence. Our continued existence (and witness to that) IS the evidence. No one bar solipsists doubt that humans exist.

Vote greens??

[–] threeduck@aussie.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, I agree wholeheartedly with everything. I'm putting greens 1 absolutely, but labour is obviously above the libs. My point, while labour is shit house, as far as centre left politics go, they're making gains towards net zero, unlike the libs who vote against both 2035 and 2050.

But just as an aside, are you vegan?

I'm pretty sure the current labour government took us from 28% renewables to 48%, with projections of mid 80s by 2030.

Current gas use was earmarked by the Liberal government in the mid 2010s, with locked in prices that caused gas to be sold at next to nothing until 2030-35. Expansion of gas in the interim was deemed necessary to stop the gas industry from imploding due to poor Liberal deal making.

Oh did everyone know that election funding is given ONLY to whoever you pick as first? Even when your vote trickles down to whoever wins, that $3-5(or so?) is only provided to your first choice?

I'll still be putting the Animal Justice Party number 1, but it's good to know.

Boy I wish this ire could be directed at the animal farming industry, who also take the babies from the mother (but this time to kill and eat the babies), whilst also keeping the mother perpetually pregnant to rinse and repeat the process.

All the while contributing 15-20% of the entire planets greenhouse gas emissions.

Boy I sure do wish.

Un-normalise the word normalise.
