The Coal unity ticket. Right now voting LNP is voting for Canavan and Joyce, waving around think tank research funded by coal money. Pollution? Climate change?! Our kids future!? Not my problem! I’m Getting paid! Woohoo!
The CSIRO is a significant contributor to Australia's R&D ecosystem. Without it, the world wouldn't have WiFi, polymer bank notes or insect repellent.
Two economic engines, but the physics stay the same. Once solar floods the system, the need for batteries scales fast California got there earlier via targets and incentives; Texas arrived via strong price signals More in our US wrap-up: modoenergy.com/research/ercot…
Business and energy leaders are clear: abandoning net zero will increase power bills. They warn it will undermine investment, increase costs and create more uncertainty. theguardian.com/australia-news… The “least cost, lowest impact pathway is an energy system dominated by renewables…
Doesn't matter whether the NSW Libs are led by Speakerman or Sloane. What matters is their ability to differentiate themselves from the unattractive malestrom that is the federal LNP. Having said that, a leadership change doesnt project stability. smh.com.au/politics/nsw/k…

Could the Nationals have abandoned Net Zero based on dodgy figures – and then pushed the Liberals to do the same? It seems the answer is: Yes. Here’s Archie Miller of The National Account:
When it comes to climate change and women in the LNP, @CMMortlock gets it. hilmasnetwork.com Yet the LNP keeps following Barnaby & Matt Canavan down the garden path....(via the pub).
Angus has a very short memory
Labor’s been selling Australians a pup. They've been saying to people that they can get emissions reductions without increases in costs, doing it their way. They've failed. They've absolutely failed. So, it's time for the reset, and that's exactly what we've announced.
Speaking on Sky News, Ms Ley insisted she cared about the climate and the interests of “Gen Z and millennials”. Sky news <---------------> Gen Z and millennials news.com.au/national/polit…
afr.com/politics/feder… Yup. If you can't win urban seats, you can't win. Howard knew it and worked hard to lock out the right flank. The current mob are failing politics 101. They've emboldened ON and the hard right flank, won no extra votes and abandoned the centre.
my 2024 manning clark lecture on the politics of energy transition is now available. we're facing a 'kodak moment'. thankfully, we're the lucky country… again! our politics is broken, but there's a new hope. video: youtube.com/watch?v=5QFYBK… text: static1.squarespace.com/static/63ccc40…

Simon Holmes à Court: The Politics of Energy Transition
The country needs certainty on energy but the Libs haven’t just abandoned net zero, they’ve abandoned evidence-based policy thinking. Let’s be clear - the Libs have abandoned climate action and the need of businesses having certainty to invest.

Apparently this is what passes for research these days.
The more that energy costs, the less manufacturing we’ll have. We made this graph in our latest report to show just how far Australia has fallen. Manufacturing now makes up only a 5% share of our economy, the lowest in the OECD. Each rise in electricity prices means fewer…
💡💡💡1000 times THIS. 💡💡💡 This is a key step on the pathway to government. To win a broad swath of urban and regional seats. These are strong ideas worth your time. afr.com/policy/energy-…
“Nevertheless, the National Party persists. Its resilience and the attraction of their views to a wider cross-section of the electorate is greater than thought.” Nats won 4% of the vote. Clutching at straws a bit here. afr.com/politics/coali…

This is a simply amazing chart and shows you why Canavan and the other “conservative” troglodytes in the Coalition are completely wrong that new coal-fired power plants will bring down power prices.
