So if you dare to use electricity in your house then you don't get to voice your opinion on climate change?
Only people that can afford an EV and solar panels to feed it may protest! Forget anyone in public housing; they don't get a say!
I may not agree with their message but I won't stick my fingers in my ears because they use the most convenient current method of transport and living.
If you are referring to my comments, I think I obviously phrased my comments incorrectly.
The point I was making, is a lot of people in Australia complain about climate change and global warming, yet do very little to mitigate their own personal power usage, therefore their own usage is contribution to the very problem they are complaining about.
So in reality, are the very same people who complain about our emissions, just wanting to use the same amount of energy but want it to come from a clean source?
Australia with 25million people, uses the same amount of power as Indonesia with 250million people, maybe we are over users and that should be addressed.
In the real world there is nothing for nothing, Australia could reduce its energy consumption quite easily just apply a tax to devices e.g a mobile phone tax, internet connection tax etc, then use that tax to clean up data transmission power supplies.
Every person you see, spends every waking moment on the screen of a phone, communication providers are one of the biggest energy users in Australia.
Whether we use fossil fuel or renewables to provide the energy, if we are massive consumers, something is paying for it, be that the climate with fossil fueled generation or the environment and habitat with renewables and storage.
