Over to you dumbarse  Cheesy

Yeah, scuttle little cockroach. Run, run, run.



who's running? You asked for a fact, I gave you one.

Can you show one energy supplier that hasn't included the costs of batteries when deciding which energy method to invest in?

Do you really think those companies are as stupid as you or lee?

The fact that nuclear, is at the moment, illegal, makes your claim as silly as you. Roll Eyes


Since when has that stopped them? Marijuana was illegal too at one stage, didn't stop companies lobbying govts to make it legal. Who is lobbying for nuclear to become legal? If nuclear was cheaper you'd have every energy supplier and their dog petitioning govt, not just mr potatoe head and those in the nuclear industry with a vested interest Cheesy Cheesy

You were the one carrying on about their costings for batteries. Give us the figures and stop changing the argument. Roll Eyes


All I asked was did you believe energy supplier didn't account for the costs of batteries when deciding where to invest their money? You ran away from an answer

Unlike you, I've never made claims about the actual costs and whether they are right or wrong. Cheesy Cheesy

That was your claim. Something which you haven't backed up. So tell us more about the energy companies not doing nuclear.

So if climate change is a scam, why do you think it is common sense to abandon coal fired power for a more expensive and more dangerous option?

You have to fairly creative to project any kind of common sense onto coalition policy.

Very good point. Nobody has demonstrated it scientifically, only politically.
Anthopogenic Climate Change is a crock of nonsense.  Clean air, water are good aims. CO2 is not a pollutant, so there's  the hoof, characterizing plant food as a 'pollution'.

Climate is not changing because of humans. Humans ARE part of nature. AGW is based on some weird quasi-religious notion that humans are APART or BEYOND nature, manipulating it from outside.

Ridiculous.

The radio journalist today has said that Australia has achieved a 29 of the 43% percent climate target. I would say that getting that last 14 of the 43% is not out of the question.

But they couldn't decide to invest in nuclear. So what were the comparisons? Wink

I think you missed the point entirely. The coalition policy is "common sense" only if you believe in climate change as well as wasting huge sums of money.

Bottom line: the coalition lies. You don't know which promises they are going to keep. Just that it will be bad for the economy and the environment.

Still running away from an answer I see.

To be expected.

Australia's she'll be right attitude is like Putting Homer Simpson in charge of a nuclear plant. The outcome would be the same. There probably isn't a culture in the world less suited to this discipline.

In the end not even Japan could do it right and their culture and discipline would be a near perfect fit.

Do you think the boards of every electricity supplier in the country didn't weight up the cost of batteries when deciding where they'd invest in nuclear or alternatives ?  Cheesy






Dutton has proven himself a bigger liar than his predecesor could ever aspire to be.

He KNOWS now - as he's ALWAYS known -
any hypothetical government of his will NEVER unveil a nuclear power plant in 2045
(the first possible completion date of the first nuclear power plant), or at any later date.

If he has any skill in anything, it's in
political "dog whistling"


In this case to placate - and curry favour with - the
fossil fuel lobby
, the
anti-renewable energy lobby
- and the broader
climate change denial lobby
.
(You'll find each group well represented in these forums)

He has
no intention of taking Australia out of the Paris Agreement
- to sign and ratify the Middle East (Iran, Libya and Yemen) Agreement.

Once the targets agreed to are slashed - the entire Paris Agreement becomes null and void.

In a media interview, today, Dutton declared there would be
no change to Paris Agreement targets
till AFTER the next Federal Election.

So, there IS no policy - just another blast of hot air.

Not that this is any reason for concern.

Over the last decade, the Liberal Party has put up a new Climate Change and Energy Policy averaging a new one once every five and a half months.

That's positive news.  I'll have to research more into it.

Funny what can happen when the adults are in charge.

29% of 43% = 14.8% of the total.
