Australia announces new plan for net zero: Extract gas to 2050 and beyond
Australia announces new plan for net zero: Extract gas to 2050 and beyond
The announcement comes despite global calls to phase out fossil fuels, with experts stressing the need for huge declines in gas use to reach climate targets.
Just heard Madeleine King on abc AM.
This is fucked.
If we absolutely must jeopardise our precious artesian basin (the life source of the australian interior) to get some gas out of beetaloo, I'd much rather reimbursement in sweet cash (like taxes), rather than the possibility of maybe potentially getting slightly cheaper gas to burn later on.
Further money thrown to Chevron for CCS, a company that consistantly misses all of its targets, and a tech that isn't ready.
Why not invest in proven policys/tech to reduce emissions? Why not give money to government owned research departments? Or at that very least, not be actively sabotaging CSIRO?

Based on facts and not ideology? I thought facts said continued burning of fossil fuels will seriously alter the climate and that methane is the worst for trapping heat. Great call!
