The state’s clean energy transition is being put at risk by a glaring underinvestment in wind and batteries,even as household after household invests in solar.
Frustrated by not taking part in global transitions,by the slowness of politics? Wishing our city would act? Well,here’s our chance to get up to speed.
Our city already stretches 150 kilometres,it is sprawling at a greater rate than it was in 2013 and at this rate,Bunbury will soon be its southernmost suburb.
Will closing Collie’s coal-fired power stations be enough for WA to meet its emission reduction obligations? Not even close.
While Australia was singled out recently by the UN Secretary General as a climate “holdout”,it is WA that is performing worst.
Weather’s not the same as climate,but this intense heat illustrates a broader trend – and the ‘Wait Awhile’ state must start moving like our future depends on it.
