Sniping koalas from helicopters: here’s what’s wrong with Victoria’s unprecedented cull

"Snipers in helicopters have shot more than 700 koalas in the Budj Bim National Park in western Victoria in recent weeks. It’s believed to be the first time koalas have been culled in this way. The species faces a double threat from habitat destruction and bushfire risk. They are considered endangered in New South Wales, Queensland and the Australian Capital Territory."

"Today, the Barossa Production Operations Environment Plan was approved by the federal offshore petroleum regulator NOPSEMA, marking the final and most significant environmental approval for #Santos’ offshore Barossa gas project.
This approval permits Santos to emit 274 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions over the 25 year life of the project.
Santos’ Barossa project has been described as one of the dirtiest gas projects in the world due to its high carbon dioxide content." - NT Enviro Centre press release

AI chip manufacturing derails climate progress in East Asia

A new report has identified a spike in the #electricity consumption rates of artificial intelligence (#AI) chip manufacturing by 350% since 2023.

The research paper, published by #Greenpeace East Asia, notes that East #Asia bears the brunt of the #ClimateImpact of AI chip manufacturing. Asian countries like #Taiwan and South #Korea are leading hubs for #semiconductor manufacturing but soaring electricity demand is denting #ClimateChange targets.

Semiconductor manufacturing plants in the region are turning to #FossilFuels to power their operation. The combined global #emissions from AI chip manufacturing in Asia Pacific, particularly South East Asia, could cause the region to miss out on its environmental #sustainability targets.
