Lunch Break
Pat Hudson
June and July 2023 saw extreme weather events around the globe, from wildfires in Canada and Hawaii to torrential rain in Libya. In Pat Hudson’s cartoon, Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek watches the unnerving news over her lunchbreak and then nonchalantly resumes approving mining applications. Plibersek has been criticised for approving some coal and gas projects since taking office, when the federal government has set a target of achieving net zero emissions in Australia by 2050.
