Insurers not insuring new carbon producing projects is great to see. We need to keep the disclosure and pressure on them. The coalition government has been incapable of agreeing on a real climate change policy for many years now, which is a disgrace. I would think that a real climate policy would win them many more votes than it would lose them, but it seems the climate change deniers are still a force there. I wonder how many more severe bushfire seasons, and droughts and water shortages, and scientists views and former emergency services heads views etc will be needed for them to realise.

Sounds great. How much higher would you like energy and gas prices to rise for poor people?
And how much will banning fossil fuels actually reduce carbon emissions? And how big will the negative economic impact be?
