FART - Australia's Energy Policy Stinks

Australia needs a new direction on energy!!

Australia today has an energy system that is producing skyrocketing amounts of deadly greenhouse gases. Our unsustainable reliance on fossil fuels and the inefficient nature of our energy system are the biggest reasons why Australia now emits more greenhouse gases per head of population than any other developed country. It is an abysmal record brought about by out-dated thinking.

We have to keep on generating energy for all Australians but we have to change the way we do it.

We need an energy policy that creates a secure supply of energy and reduces greenhouse pollution. Just as other nations are moving to harness the sun and the wind to create energy, so should Australia. There's no country better placed to do it. In renewable energy we have safe, proven and affordable technologies that can give us the energy we need without any greenhouse emissions.

The Howard Government has given us an energy policy that makes coal the king, makes us the world's worst per capita contributor to climate change, and locks out renewable energy and energy efficiency.

Mr Howard, your energy policy stinks
