There is no greater treachery than this failure to face up to the climate crisis. How can we now fend off despair?

Well, they're allowing an existing coal mine to continue operating. It's not good, but it's not like they're constructing a whole new coal mine.

Renewables are becoming economically superior, and like it or not the Australian government (at least under Labor) is doing a fair bit to push the country towards renewables at a steady pace. We're even doing better than New Zealand.
