An Australian community for everything from your backyard to beyond the black stump.
Topics may include Aussie plants and animals, environmental, farming, energy, and climate news and stories (mostly Aus specific), etc. New related communities will be split off when required, think like subcommunities that exist on that other platform.
Trigger Warning: Community contains mostly bad environmental news (not by choice!). Community may also feature stories about animal agriculture and/or meat. Until tagging is available, please be aware and click accordingly.

MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The CSIRO's gas research arm, GISERA, which is partly funded by fossil fuel companies, was tasked with finding out the scope of the offsets needed.
Climate Analytics director Bill Hare said the institute compared the study to "scientific literature, the experiences in other countries and the data from similar operations in other parts of Australia".
Climate Analytics calculated emissions from the Beetaloo could be 45 per cent higher than the CSIRO estimated — about 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gas equivalent over 25 years.
Gas industry lobby group Australian Energy Producers NT director David Slama said the facts and science must be followed to get the best outcome for Territorians.
"The CSIRO report reinforces the findings of the independent Pepper Inquiry that the Beetaloo Basin can be developed in alignment with Australia climate change mitigation targets," Mr Slama said.
"Further, gas from the Beetaloo Basin will play an important role in supporting renewable deployment, powering industry and manufacturing, including critical mineral processing, and facilitating the shift away from coal, both in Australia and the region."
