Supporting new coal and gas in a climate crisis is criminal. The Vic Labor Government has made a $2.3 BILLION deal to keep coal alive – through converting brown coal into hydrogen, for export to Japan. 🚨 Scientists around the world have just warned in the final IPCC report that to tackle the climate crisis, we MUST stop new coal and gas projects. So why is Labor backing more coal? This isn’t what climate action looks like. No new coal and gas is the bare minimum.
