I am an optimist, by nature and conviction. So, I believe that facts will ultimately prevail. However, I acknowledge that a lot of time and effort can be wasted before arriving at that point. Those who aspire to national leadership should be ashamed if they enable the untruths that cause such delays

‘10s of 1000s of solar installers – 10 million solar Australians – demonstrate that the consumer energy revolution genuinely empowers households to provide a clear path for making a global impact, one rooftop at a time.’ @smartenergycouncil.bsky.social www.pv-magazine-australia.com/2025/10/14/b...

Even ignoring the existential costs of climate change, renewables have become much cheaper and more efficient than fossil fuels. It is utterly mad that we continue to subsidise inferior technology that is destroying the biosphere by close to $7 trillion USD per year. That's about 6% of global GDP.

Invest in climate positives, not fossil fuels. #FFdeathwatch #Climaterisk #Auspol
