Legendary anti nuclear campaigner Dave Sweeney keynoted with a rousing defence of clean energy, drilling down into the real reasons why #nuclear is a handy distraction. Conservatives pay lip service to clean energy while capping renewables: the tax payer is on the hook #CoalClunkers #NuclearGasScam

In Australia nuclear sucks, except when it allows Dutton&Co to pretend they are doing something about clean energy.
Taxpayers would have to foot the whole bill, and our energy bills would go up.
Why this dead elephant? Anything to do with taking global nuclear waste? #auspol #NuclearGasScam

The incomparable Dave Sweeney (of Nobel Peace Prize winning ICAN fame) talks nuclear, why it might be great politics but a truly lousy energy solution, and why we would be so much better off with abundant, safe clean energy.

Dead elephant strategy?
Shorter nuclear - then than 5% of our electricity needs at 2050 for 2-3x the cost of a clean energy transition.

Quote posting is a legitimate tactic to boost the target post/opinion/account to your followers. This can be enhanced by suitable hashtags such as #auspol #AusVotes25 or #NuclearGasScam

If you are starting out it is one way to gain followers, especially if you contribute a useful reference

22yo beauty pageant winner "Barbenheimer" nuclear expert or CSIRO and AEMO?

Spectacular animation showing us solar growth, with China really punching it out.
Will we continue to shift to clean affordable #solar in Australia or lose any chance of first mover advantages?

Fossil fuels are being 'eaten alive' by the solar rush
Satellite imagery reveals the staggering rise of solar farms around the world in recent years. Can Australia get on board?

LNP #Nuclear is not about vision, energy policy, environment or community benefits.
It's just a dead cat the size of an elephant, with a very big side order of gas.

"Dylan McConnell, an energy systems expert at the University of New South Wales, said this would lead to more than 1bn tonnes of CO2 being pumped into the atmosphere by 2051 under the Coalition’s preferred path."

Under a “step change” scenario in transforming the source of electricity, which is roughly in line with Labor’s plan to have 82% of electricity from renewable energy by 2030, it is forecast about 90% of the country’s remaining coal-fired capacity would shut by 2035. The Coalition assumes about a third of existing coal capacity would shut by that date. Dylan McConnell, an energy systems expert at the University of New South Wales, said this would lead to more than 1bn tonnes of CO2 being pumped into the atmosphere by 2051 under the Coalition’s preferred path. A separate analysis by economist Steven Hamilton, published in the Australian Financial Review, produced a similar result.

Why bother with nuclear when solar is adding 750GW this year (and counting) and battery storage is sliding down the learning curve.

Hinkley C in the UK will cost nearly three times its budget: "It was initially due to be operational in 2017 and to cost about $35 billion, but it is now not expected to open before 2031 and will cost about $90 billion. "

Are they going to try and ram through the "teal killer" bill?
I guess Clive won't care. He can just keep making score after score of RWNJ astroturf platforms.
Time to get organised and make sure we have real people in parliament not oil and gas lackeys.

"If Parliament returns in February, electoral changes will be at the top of the agenda.

For Australians to trust in the process, there must be genuine consultation that includes the public.

Democracy belongs to the people, not the politicians they elect."

This is why we obviously need nuclear, instead of more wind and solar power. Why? Because then there will be 5x as much gas in the system. Fantastic for our wallets, our health and our planet, not to mention our kids (and our insurance bills).

Shaping up to be the disinformation election.
It's essential to get tooled up.
Yes climate damage is escalating, but fake solutions like the #NuclearGasScam and #CCS will only hurt our kids and our environment even more than we have already.

If we are going to talk about nuclear, it should be to point out that it's actually about distracting from fossil fuel expansion and protecting the status quo.
