DUBAI/SYDNEY, Wednesday 13 December 2023 — The latest Global Stocktake from COP28 in Dubai has been adopted with strong words but no plan of action to end fossil fuels — seen as a key marker of success from this year’s conference.

Fossil fuel giant Woodside, has begun seismic blasting in the middle of whale migration season, just a few months after a Federal Court threw out its previous approval. The seismic vessel is operating in endangered pygmy blue whale habitat and not far from UNESCO-protected Ningaloo Reef.
This is Scott Reef, home to endangered whales and turtles and thousands of corals. The ship - Greenpeace’s Rainbow Warrior - marks the spot where fossil fuel giant Woodside wants to drill for gas.
