Surge in WA emissions puts Australia’s net zero targets in doubt

I don't imagine theres much room in the WA electorate to vote further to the 'left' than Labor. But still, a couple more Greens, or even Teals, could really help push the WA government faster down the path they're already slow walking down.

Also gas companies pay shit-all royalties for what they're getting, so why do them any favours!? I don't understand why they have such a large presence in policy decisions in this state.
