our conservative government are trying to punish the gays for getting the right to marry when Aus voted overwhelmingly yes the other year.

The strong streak of reserved conservative thinking is probably our fault, sorry about that. If it helps, they'll all die off eventually.

Mate we need action on climate change more. Australia has the potential to hit 500% of our current energy needs with renewables

Considering the giant solar farms I've seen in the US, and how most of Aus is empty, I'm surprised they're not leading the charge in solar.

The Australian economy was built off coal and other natural resources, unfortunately these companies gained so much power over our -
SuprisedPikachuFace
Politicians/government that it’s hard to go against them. Same story in the US with oil companies influence on gov. But Australia absolutely
SuprisedPikachuFace
Should invest heavily in renewable energy, considering we have the space & weather perfect for solar, and the resources to make it happen
drunkill
coal is massively subsidized and (currently) cheap. But no new coal plants will be built in aus, too expensive.
Justjustin2300
Except you know adani

Still can’t believe that’s going ahead. Haven’t seen a movement get this much traction in Aus since the indigenous rights movements

Thats a mine and Australia likes to pretend once coals on a ship it doesnt count
drunkill
Thats a mine and they don't even really want to build it. They just want the gov to change the existing deal so they can sue for billions.
malachitedragon
Because of the NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) dipshits. They pretend they're all for it, just not where they can see it.
JohnMike64

Partially. It's also politicians being paid by coal mines to keep coal on the menu.

Longinus212
"Oh but you'll kill all the birds in the area mate, you can't do that." And other stupid excuses.

They don't care. They don't want them built -at all-; they just pretend that's the reason for their objections.
