flag Australia’s fossil fuel allies spread false claims about renewables; data shows minimal waste and greater harm from fossil fuels, while carbon levels hit 440 ppm.

flag The fossil fuel industry and its political allies in Australia—the "fossil quartet"—have intensified efforts to block climate action after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s re-election, promoting misleading claims about renewables harming wildlife, polluting landfills, or damaging infrastructure. flag Data shows solar panel waste is minimal—less than 0.25% of landfill—and recycling is advancing. flag The fossil quartet ignores the far greater environmental damage from fossil fuels, while falsely claiming a U.S. nuclear renaissance, despite no new nuclear plants under construction in the U.S. or Americas. flag Atmospheric carbon levels have risen to nearly 440 ppm, confirming human-driven climate change, as verified by Mauna Loa and EU monitoring. flag The article stresses that global cooperation, like the Montreal Protocol, is essential, and that delaying action based on misinformation risks long-term environmental and security threats.
