Australia is barely mentioned in IEA’s 2020 World Energy Outlook, and only to note the exposure of its coal and gas industry to the state of climate action around the world.
Net zero targets change the game as IEA hails renewables as new “king” of electricity
IEA says renewables will emerge as the new “king of electricity” in latest World Energy Outlook, which for the first time looks at net zero target by 2050.
Australia’s new budget feeds taxpayer fuel to an emissions monster
The granting of public money to one of Australia’s biggest coal-hungry emissions monsters is a notable acceleration of the government’s descent into climate self destruction.
A rapid Chinese energy transition is far more feasible than you think
China’s goal is to hit net zero emissions by the year 2060, which means an incredible, deep shift in just a few decades.
Technology roadmap delays climate action by denying rapid deployment
To hit climate goals we need to accelerate deployment of mature technologies beyond the ‘natural’ rate of build. The technology roadmap doesn’t do that.
Scott Morrison’s three hundred year climate plan is a dark moment for Australia
“Gas chose Itself”. Those who profess – like Scott Morrison – to be ‘technology neutral’ are scrambling for a way to dismiss the urgency of climate action.
Morrison thinks gas is the new coal, and it’s just as big a climate threat
The main threat to climate action comes from people who say they’re trying to help, when really, they’re enriching themselves by harming us.
Morrison casts dark shadow over energy transition with massive gas intervention
NSW does not need a new gas-fired power station – not on the grounds of cost, or reliability. On climate grounds, it is an act of deadly insanity.
Windfall: The dirty politics of Australia’s biggest blackout
The story that emerged in wake of South Australia’s system black stuck like dried baby cereal to Australia’s political and media landscape, and it has remained there since.
IEA’s technology report highlights Australia’s dangerous climate policy holes
IEA technology report highlights a simple truth: In a good emission scenario, there is less gas. In a bad emission scenario, there is more gas.
