So proud of the role our team have played representing Mr Tipakalippa. He and the community have been an inspiration! I’m very grateful @EDOLawyers have been part of this significant court victory.

After 8 years at the ABC, I'm hanging up the typewriter. I'd especially like to thank everyone working in climate and biodiversity, fighting the good fight. If we scrape in under 3C, they're the ones we'll have to thank. Also to my beautiful colleagues, you make the place. ❤️✌️

One year ago, Tiwi people, represented by the legends at @EDOLawyers, slayed a giant, defeating Santos in the Federal Court over its failure to consult them about its offshore Barossa gas project. The case has reverberated around the world. Barossa is still stalled. Incredible.

Tuvalu passed a historic constitutional reform last week to declare its statehood in perpetuity despite threats of climate change to territory (world's 1st). MP @Simon_Kofe and I share some insights on this significant development for Tuvalu and beyond. abc.net.au/pacific/progra…

Imagine someone tosses a match into a pile of relatively green, wet wood. What happens? Not much. Then, imagine they toss that same match into a pile of bone-dry kindling. It sets off a conflagration. What determines the condition of the wood? Increasingly, it's climate change.

Amid the devastating Maui fires, I see many arguing, "it's weather, arson--anything but climate change." Let's set the record straight. Climate change doesn't usually start the fires; but it intensifies them, increasing the area they burn + making them much more dangerous. 🧵

@ErnMarkham @EDOLawyers The decision of the NT does have a relationship with the Commonwealth by virtue of the recommendations in the Pepper Review which fall within control of the Commonwealth, particularly a recommendation the “water trigger” apply to NT Gas projects. This, to date, hasn’t occurred.

The Northern Territory Government’s decision to hit go on onshore gas production today before fully implementing the recommendations of the Pepper Inquiry is a breach of faith with Territorians. Read more: edo.org.au/2023/05/03/pre…

There’s plenty that’s problematic about the NT Gov’s announcement today that they’ll allow fracking production in the #NTAustralia, particularly with a range of key recommendations from the Pepper Inquiry outstanding. No one in the NT will benefit from impacts of #climatechange

Today the NT Supreme Court is hearing a crucial test case on the calculation of mining security bonds. In this instance the case relates to the McArthur River Mine - but mine rehabilitation and who ultimately carries the cost is a nation-wide issue of real importance.

We’re honoured to be in the Supreme Court today with Jack Green, Josie Green and Borroloola community members over Glencore’s McArthur River Mine, represented by @EDOLawyers. Find out more about the case here: ecnt.org.au/mrm_campaign
