  3. Call to end #NuclearPower ban brings heated reaction in #Australia

    Opposition wants to change law and build new plants but critics say focus should remain on #RenewableEnergy

    "Another factor is the #Aukus security agreement with the US and UK, which entails #nuclearpowered #submarines being built in Australia and will require the country to store #weaponsgrade #RadioactiveWaste."

    "Dutton’s pitch has pushed energy policy to the fore ahead of next year’s election, as Australia — rich in resources and a big exporter of energy in the form of coal, liquefied natural gas and uranium — grapples with how to decarbonise its economy.
    Anthony Albanese’s Labor government has put its focus on renewable energy, passing legislation that targets a 43 per cent cut in carbon emissions from 2005 levels by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. It hopes to rapidly phase out coal — which has accounted for almost two-thirds of power generation over the past year — and deliver 82 per cent of electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
    But the opposition Liberals and their allies, the rurally focused Nationals, have pledged to abandon the 2030 target and scrap large-scale wind farm projects. They say nuclear energy could deliver power from the middle of next decade. "

  5. Just heard on the radio that #Uber are planning to mandate "zero emissions vehicles" soon.

    Wonder what they mean?

    #ElectricVehicles rely on the power grid which still has a decent amount of #FossilFuel energy production.

    #Bicycles might not emit fumes, but cyclists pedalling hard up hills certainly do! (Both ends if they've eaten something volatile.)

    We going to see #NuclearPowered cars on Australia's roads now?

  6. CW: UK Pols

    Ministers are said to be open “in principle” to the idea of building conventionally-armed #nuclearpowered #submarines like Britain’s #AstuteClass for them which cost nearly £2billion each. #Australia pulled out of a £65billion deal with #France in favour of building nuclear submarines through the #AUKUS pact — sparking a major diplomatic row in 2021. #Anglosphere #China
