When reflecting on what I was going to say for this 3min talk I had mixed emotions present themselves.
First I was excited, I thought yeh, I can rev people up in the crowd and get people excited to take action on climate change.
I left it for a few days and sub-consciously kept pondering about what I was going to say.
I am deeply deeply dismayed about the future direction our government at both State and Federal levels is heading in the area of energy.
I can't possibly see how creating a future for our country based on digging fossil fuels out of the ground because it's there, ignoring the impacts of burning it and ignoring the fact that the rest of the world is quite rapidly turning away from it, is at all a good thing.
Dear concerned Australians,
Every day we sit here and read about decisions our leaders are making that we completely disagree with. The article I read yesterday about the Renewable Energy Target Review being led by a climate change sceptic is one such example.
