11.01.2022 At a local level do we sit back and wait for the bigger players to act on climate? Absolutely not said Craig Reucassel at the Lighter Footprints Candidates Forum. Individuals and councils share the same space in the community, and can be far more nimble. Councils are the first port of call for information on electric vehicles, solar panels and FOGO recycling. And, as a bonus, they don’t even need to put their hand in their pockets, instead acting as advice-givers that support... the community to make changes. Make an informed decision this election and vote for a candidate that supports their community! #council #boroondara #changemaker #climateaction Authorised by Wayne Perkins, PO Box 13700, Middle Camberwell VIC 3124

09.01.2022 Gas generation continues to fall, being squeezed out by cheaper cleaner renewables, putting in doubt the Morrison government's plans for more gas-fired power st...ations. Climate Council's Tim Baxter says we do not need more polluting gas. As the sunniest and one of the windiest places on the planet, Australia should be cashing-in on its renewable advantage, and in doing so, rapidly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It’s a win-win. https://reneweconomy.com.au/renewables-shine-over-australi/ See more

02.01.2022 Denmark offers the end of oil and 70% by 2030. The EU, 55% (which means paying off Polish coal). And Boris, at 68%, snubs Scott Morrison's vague promise not to cheat on our ridiculous 26% targets. In the mean time it's likely that an ice free arctic summer and/or 1.5C will be upon us within the decade. We have only a very small time to act.
