“I was both panic-stricken and furious when I discovered that Adani hired burly security contractors from the war in Afghanistan to secretly follow and photograph my nine-year-old daughter. Two years later I’m still creeped out,” Pennings says in his letter to Adani. “My eldest daughter was 20 when representatives of Adani were following and photographing her little sister. Two years later she still experiences anxiety that she is also being followed, photographed and otherwise investigated.”

Some Queensland coal mines to trade beyond 2050 net-zero targetIt has been revealed 12 coal mines across Queensland are expected to continue operating beyond the 2050 net-zero target. Internal state government reports reveal the Carmichael coal mine is expected to remain operational until 2071, while another two mines are expected to remain open until 2099, according to The Courier Mail. The revelations come after Resources Minister Madeleine King declared Australia will continue exporting coal and gas for 'as long as we need'. Coal accounts for 70 per cent of Queensland’s resources exports, amounting to nearly $72 billion. So we'll just send the coal to China to burn, and Australia keeps the 'net zero' tag? LOL. Excellent No surprise, the whole planet has been struggling to transition to renewables for 2 decades are emissions have actually increased. All we have is targets not met and broken promises, what are govt will do differently is still unknown. 🤔
