Why don’t multi millionaires like Rudd and Turnbull fund a town powered by renewable energy and show us how it’s cheaper?
They both spend time trashing out current PM for not implementing climate policies they didn’t introduce when they both had terms as Prime Minister.
Rudd was spooked out of it by his own cabinet who told him it could cost him the election. All the while it was part of a plot to topple him.
Turnbull lost his leadership twice because their was no support for his policies, but it’s the Australian people and Scott Morrison who are wrong.
So show us you two, show us how much cheaper and easier and affordable it is.
Show us with you own money. There’s plenty of sunny and windy towns in Australia. Pick one and fund it with renewable energy. You could find one by the coast if you want and add some wave energy as a bonus.
Show us Rudd and Turnbull with your own money. And get Julie Bishop to help with donations if you want. She’s good at raising money for things that are important to her isn’t she?
You’ll both end up richer won’t you by benefiting from the “growing market” because you two would get all the profits.
But make sure you pick a town with some industry ok? Because renewable energy has to do more than just keep the lights on you know.
So just shut up about Morrison and do it.
Oh, and while you’re at it; do us a favour and fund the development of an electric truck motor will you? Cause were gonna need trucks to deliver all the giant batteries and stuff to everywhere after we stop using fossil fuel.
Former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull chipped in to the debate with a recent tweet claiming: “The bottom line is renewables + storage are cheaper than new coal let alone the loopy current fad of nuclear power which is the current weapon of mass distraction for the backbench.”
Australia has abundant solar, wind and geothermal energy. We can harness this clean, renewable energy to power our homes and businesses to help tackle climate change.
The global market for renewable energy is set to be worth US$750 billion a year by 2016. Countries around the world are setting renewable energy targets to help reduce emissions and position themselves to benefit from this growing market.
