Comment on Federal Coalition commits to dumping 2030 climate target as it pursues nuclear power

It just seems dumb at this point. Nuclear energy is so incredibly expensive compared to the alternatives. Most countries are moving away from it due to it being commercially unviable. And yet here we are with the NLP acting like it’s the best thing since sliced bread.

I know they see it as their duty to push the opposite of whatever Labor’s doing but they don’t seem to care that it’s just a bad idea.

@zik @Psiczar they apparently think we'll forget how many times they've canned the idea when in power. It is just a convenient lie.

  This. It isn’t supposed to succeed, it’s supposed to drag on for decades eating up all the money that could have built renewables.

Their duty is to look after their donors
