If concluding that ‘We live in a state of idiots’ is the best analysis of the Victorian election result that the Liberals can muster, they’ll be in opposition for a long time to come. How about ‘Preselecting religious fundamentalists and preferencing cookers means we have little in common with the electorate’? Nutjob candidate Timothy ‘we won this country fair and square’ Dragan and Mulgrave’s Michael Piastrino who consorted with cookers were hardly star candidates either. A government needs a good opposition, we don’t have one these next 4 years.https://www.theage.com.au/politics/victoria/how-the-election-result-reset-the-political-landscape-20221122-p5c0bf.html

Contrasting political systems with quite different environmental consequences are at play here. Is an effective climate response possible in a democratic country, where the markets will always protect their own interests? Authoritarian rule should not be the only alternative but at least , in the case of China, it can work. It is up to us, and our own political system, to show an alternative.https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/22/world/asia/india-china-air-pollution.html

The loss and damage fund enables countries hit by climate impacts to ‘mop the floor’ but the failure to agree to phase out fossil fuels means that the tap pouring that water onto the floor is left running. This is the failure of COP27.https://reneweconomy.com.au/the-good-the-bad-and-a-leave-pass-for-fossil-fuels-at-compromised-egypt-cop27/
