Don’t Nuke the Climate

They tried to nuke the climate, and this happened. No more excuses: the future is renewable, not radioactive.

“It wasn’t worth it in 1953, and it’s definitely not worth it today” In this country, we must allow First Nations wisdom and knowledge to lead the way when it comes to energy generation – and the consensus is overwhelmingly clear: renewables are the only way forward. #auspol

Now and beyond the Federal Election it is essential that we keep the conversation about the dangers of nuclear power central to conversations about the path toward 100% renewable energy.

In particular, he touches on how important it is to have conversations about the danger and misinformation about nuclear energy with younger voters, most of whom weren’t even born at the height of the nuclear resistance fight.

Long term activist and musician Peter Garret wrote a searing opinion piece in The Age this week, outlining how dangerous Dutton’s nuclear energy vision would be for this country. 🔗 theage.com.au/politics/feder…

'Nuclear is waste of time and money.' 'Somehow, the nuclear lobby has managed to convince politicians that the industry is green and “clean”. Luckily, the National Audit Office is not so easily taken in, as it’s just proved with a nice reality check.' thetimes.com/business-money…

It’s hardly surprising that the #LNP’s sham “nuclear policy” would lead to vast amounts of coal & gas being extracted & burnt. That’s the entire point - it’s precisely why the fossil fuel industry funds the major parties.💰🔥 #auspol #conflictsofinterest abc.net.au/news/2024-09-2…

Brief thread on Peter Dutton's unravelling nuclear brain-freeze. No plan, no costings, no community buy-in, no clue. This isn't a policy, it's a cynical con. #DontNuketheClimate
