Agreed.
And here, whoever the person is, is opening the door for Austrailians to lead the way, be the leaders, have the economic advantage of the green race
by developing alternative energy. AU is also one of the richest nations on Earth and has a rich culture. You have so many advantages and
opportunities.And the response is, I will drink and burn styrofoam. Wow, what leadership.
Considering the Great Barrier Reef is a huge tourist attraction for you, it would be in your best interest to keep it.
Actually, what this guy is saying makes me wonder if AU possibly has a very large coal deposit. The US right now contains most of the world's coal.
If we used it as a primary source, we could be self sufficient.
Either that, or the way AU is located on the planet has a far more profound effect then other continents. Size isn't everything.
But coal is a dirty nasty business from cradle to grave. And no one wants it.
From mining, to processing, to burning and disposing, it is terrible. As someone who grew up near coal towns, it's catastrophic effects can be felt
for a long, LONG time, even after the mine is closed.
