The king’s visit, his first to an overseas realm as sovereign, comes amid revived debate over whether Australia should cut ties with the royal family and become a republic instead.

King Charles III has expressed "deep love and affection" for Australia, a former part of the British Empire. As he visits the country this weekend, he may find that Australians don't feel quite as much affection for him.

Charles and Queen Camilla arrived Friday evening local time in Sydney, where a tribute on the sails of the city's iconic opera house displayed a four-minute montage of images from

Record water temperatures have led to more and more mass bleaching events along the Great Barrier Reef. Experts warn the reef is running out of time.

Water temperatures along the Great Barrier Reef off the northeast coast of Australia have hit a 400-year high, according to a major new study, which concludes that human-induced climate change is the most likely cause.

Using coral samples to reconstruct sea temperatures dating back as far as the 17th century, scientists found that temperatures before 1900 had been relatively stable, but that they had been increasing on average by 0.12 degrees Celsius (0.2 degrees Fahrenheit) per year since 1960.

"These are corals that have lived for 400 years and these are the warmest temperatures they've experienced," said Helen McGregor, co-author of the study which was published in the science journal Nature in Australia on Thursday.

The boy attack stabbed another man in an incident police said had the "hallmarks" of terrorism but was yet to be declared a terrorist act.

Western Australia police shot dead a "radicalized" 16-year-old boy on Saturday night after he stabbed a man in Perth. 

State Premier Roger Cook said the teenager attacked a man and then "rushed" at police officers, armed with a kitchen knife. 

The police responded by shooting him twice with Tasers before firing a single fatal shot.

Here’s how we can take sources and articles posted here and use them to pressure our respective governments to help Ukraine, in literally less than 1 minute (I timed myself doing this process):

1. ⁠Copy the link of the source/article + this message (or any other message you’d like instead): “Ukraine needs more help than what we’re providing them. Russia is dangerous and needs to be stopped in Ukraine, not after. Please organize more aid”
2. ⁠Send it to your local, state/provincial, or federal government through email. Here’s a list of sources that help you find your representatives, organized by country and based on where you live:

Let’s look at what this Government has repealed so far, with a splattering of other confirmed policy actions.

1. Repealed under fast track provisions. No more Fair Pay Agreements, a repeal that officials advised would “disproportionately affects women, young people, Māori and Pasifika people.” However, Brooke Van Velden said it was a great thing for employers. She said repealing FPA would be “good at creating good business environment and therefore good long-term certainty for good employees.” Source: [FPA repealed by Minister despite official advice](https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2023/12/fair-pay-agreements-leaked-cabinet-paper-reveals-workpla
