Climate stall duty at Merri Food Hub in Fawkner today.
We met 13 yo Charlie who ignored us and we ignored him. But we also met some cute hooman puppies who gave us pats while Dad had a few climate conversations about the climate crisis, waste to energy, industrial agriculture reliance on fossil fuel based fertiliser, what Council is doing.
Also on Labor approving 28 new coal and gas projects in the last 3 years, how that over half the gas exported from Australia there is no royalties paid, in fact we give $billions to foreign owned companies to export this gas which they make many billions in profit. What a scam which succeeding Labor and Coalition Governmdnts have failed to address.

“We are on duty at our Friday market stall in Fawkner. Someone needs to urge you hoomans to stop with the new coal and gas, and protect nature and our fellow species.
“It looks like the Albanese Government will try to ram through changes to National Environment laws, the EPBC Act, to reduce due process next Tuesday. This will be nominally to safeguard the foreign owned salmon aquaculture industry in Tasmania that is killing the Macquarie harbour ecosystem including the endangered Maugean Skate that only lives there, but the changes will also advantage fossil fuel companies.
“We were only just puppies when Labor were elected in May 2022 promising major reform of national environment laws. Instead they look like taking us backwards from protecting nature with these new changes. “ - Indiana Jones and Juliet

We are here at the 350 Climate campaign launch at Brunswick Town Hall for the electorate of Wills held by Labor MP Peter Khalil.
“We are here for #Chihuahuasforclimateaction . Some one has to represent other species and all the companion animals feeling the heat of climate change.”
“Honestly the footpaths in summer are getting too hot for walkies!!
“We need #nomorecoal #nonewgas #nonukes and end #FossilFuel subsidies, as well as more renewables as part of the #energytransition.

We hope we smell like flowers because Dad gave us a bath, and then put on some henna mud on our fur before washing it off, to turn us into caramelised chihuahuas… At least we now all have matching hair/fur.

Hey Toto, first dog of the nation, can you give your dad Prime Minister Albanese a nip to say Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek approving 3 new coal projects the Thursday before Christmas is just so wrong? Give Tanya a nip too, if you see her.
Boggabri, Caval Ridge and Lake Vermont Meadowbrook coal mine extensions will produce more than 880 million tonnes of carbon emissions over their lifetime, close to two times Australia’s domestic emissions from all sources in 2023.
And Tanya Plibersek has the hide to berate the Abbott Government over coal project approvals? Come on.
Three of the five projects approved under the EPBC Act today (19 Dec) were the coal projects.
She is trolling us all! Environment Minister? Maybe Minister for Coal Approvals adding to global warming against the science and putting us all in danger: humans and your children, companion animals like us, and the many wild animals and ecosystems.
Federal Labor Government should be ashamed. You were elected to update National environment laws, a mandate for climate action, instead 3 new coal projects in September with 1.4 billion tonnes of lifecycle climate pollution, and these 3 projects with 880 million tonnes of lifecycle climate pollution. - Juliet and Indiana Jones

We hope #merribekcouncil is reusing this plastic Christmas tree each year.
We have read that a plastic Christmas tree can produce around 40 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions, which is more than double that of a real tree if it ends up in a landfill.
Plastic Christmas trees can pollute the surrounding environment as they wear and degrade with microplastic particles adding to the PM2.5 and PM10 particle air pollution from vehicles that makes us all a little bit sick.
A plastic Christmas tree can take over 500 years to decompose in a landfill. But it is equally problematic for toxic air pollution if incinerated.
For that home Christmas tree It’s more sustainable to reuse a plastic Christmas tree for at least 12 years.
But there are better sustainable options including: Decorating a living outside tree
Buying a live potted tree. Perhaps a potted Wollemi Pine (an endangered species in the wild)
If you buy a cut plantation Christmas tree to use, thoughtful disposal can allow it to decompose back to organic components. Much better than a plastic Christmas tree

“I ain’t no dumb blonde
I ain’t no stupid barbie dog
I got my game on
Watch me, watch me
Watch me prove you wrong
Well, there you go again tellin’ me where I belong
You put me on the bench, don’t think that I can play strong
So quick to condescend, well, you think I’m empty, I’m not
You won’t be so confident when I’m crushin’ you from the top (Oh)”

What we do for an iced coffee… venture out in #heatwave temperatures to bites on bonwick in #Fawkner. Temperature check: 39.1C, 12% humidity In the shade at 1.40pm.
Global warming is driving earlier, more frequent and hotter #heatwaves. Stay hydrated and stay cool.
The sparrows on Bonwick are jumping around and panting to keep cool.
The concrete and asphalt paths are just too hot for walkies.
Leave some water out in your gardens for wildlife.
