UPDATED: Wednesday thirty first of January 2024
The Nationwide Rally In opposition to Reckless Renewables is on the primary sitting day of Parliament, Tuesday, sixth February 2024, at 10am in entrance of Parliament Home. This peaceable rally is grassroots, representing many numerous regional communities who’re straight and adversely affected by the Australian Authorities’s reckless rollout of “renewables”. We urge the Federal and State Governments to stop their reckless rollout of unreliable, unaffordable, and environmentally harmful wind, photo voltaic, restricted “firming” batteries, and high-voltage transmission strains, amidst an ever-increasing demand for dependable electrical energy.
At present, there are over 1000 new renewable initiatives within the authorities’s “Powering Our Nation” pipeline (Supply AEMO, 2023). Nearly all of those are situated in Regional Australia. Within the lead-up to most of those “initiatives”, this authorities has carried out brief, insincere, and unacknowledged neighborhood session. Exploiting the truth that most of those initiatives are situated in or close to coastal, farming, and conventional communities with small populations, the federal government continues to ignore our considerations. In lots of instances, our proper to judicial overview or enchantment has or can be eliminated.
Australian customers, taxpayers, and industries require an electrical energy community that’s environment friendly, secure, dependable, safe, and reasonably priced. It’s vital for Australia, now and sooner or later, to determine a community that doesn’t harm our distinctive setting, significantly productive agricultural land, fisheries, and native habitats.
This authorities’s reckless rollout of “renewables” poses a major menace to our nation, threatening meals manufacturing for Australians and 80 million customers globally. Our fauna and flora are dealing with unprecedented destruction, as a whole lot of hundreds of hectares of land and ocean flooring are being deforested and/or broken. It’s posing a menace to our financial system, costing over $121 billion (AEMO, 2023). There are documented severe provide chain and sustainment points, and subsequently reliability dangers, probably resulting in mass blackouts. Large taxpayer subsidies and electrical energy payments will move offshore for many years to the numerous “greenwashed” multinationals lined up for these subsidised “investments”.
This rally is a coalition of grassroots neighborhood teams united underneath the Nationwide Rational Power Community. We name upon the Australian Authorities to:
1. Conduct an pressing Senate Inquiry: Set up a Senate Inquiry to scrutinise the technical veracity in addition to the extreme financial, social and environmental prices of “renewables”, and the escalating dangers to our nationwide curiosity and safety. This consists of reviewing the dedicated, anticipated, actionable and future initiatives being fast-tracked by the Division of Local weather Change, Power, the Setting, and Water, particularly the Capability Funding Scheme, Rewiring the Nation, Offshore Wind Initiatives, and increasing unelected overreaching organisations together with the Australian Renewable Power Company, Local weather Change Authority, Clear Power Finance Company, Australian Power Market Operator, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Analysis Organisation, and Clear Power Council.
2. Droop all “renewable vitality” initiatives: We name on the Australian Authorities to convene the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Power Council and request all states and territories droop wind, photo voltaic, hydro and related transmission development till the above Senate Inquiry stories.
3. Elevate the ban on nuclear energy: Nuclear vitality has the bottom general greenhouse gasoline emissions of any vitality supply because of its low land footprint, low materials utilization, and low waste output. The present ban is archaic, restraining Australia from attaining a robust dependable vitality future.
This can be a nationwide grassroots name for a accountable and sustainable strategy to our vitality future. We urge the Australian authorities to prioritise the well- being of our surroundings, communities, and the way forward for our nation.
