Antinuclear

 Nuclear news this week – not industry handouts

A bit of good news – 

 The global nuclear-free movement just had a thumping victory over the nuclear lobby. Australians voted in an unprecedented landslide to reject the Opposition’s pro nuclear policy, and to kick their leader right out of Parliament.

 Australia is the only country in the world that is a nation-continent, a great island -continent with one federal government, and one predominant language. Already with a third of all households having solar power, and a pro-renewable energy government now thoroughly endorsed – Australia is set to be world leader in truly clean energy, and climate action.
