Clean Energy
Council says uncertainty over the renewable energy target is
hindering investment, letting other countries take the lead
Oliver Milman
Most moves
thus-far, anywhere, to "Go Green" are more or less
irrelevant to the big issue of repairing the global environment and
it's 'breadbasket', the global ecology - flora mainly.
Neither of the
two major parties, nor the lesser right wingers, are serious, nor
capable of taking humanity as far as is necessary from now, to make
any significant corrections and reparations to the damage done over
the last, say, 250 years, by utterly greed-and-power centred
industrialist dynasties, corporations and nations. All 3, as-much,
one-and-the-same.
One of the best
changes Australia has had recently, toward revolutionizing our
industries, is the shutdown of the totally anti-environmental
'auto-industry', in the next few years.
But that's still
minuscule to what we need, if..., IF..., Australians are serious
about making things cleaner, safer, and ecologically-cheaper, short
and long term.
Obviously neither
major party IS 'serious', because of their corporate preferences,
allegiances, and support-bases.
Ridiculously
filthy, greedy, IGNORANT, anti-social and anti-ecological
corporations, and shareholder, boardroom and dynastic families.
The
auto-industry's closures opens the doors for such as the Brilliant,
innovative, progressive and ecologically sound "Tesla"
motors of California, stepping right away from the carbon
[fossil-fuel]-powered concept.
The reasons we
cling to the severely dated products using fossil fuels and all the
ancillary pieces, from metals and fossil plastics, to farcical
'hi-tech' lo-lifespan extras, is because the economy and 'employment'
- "slave-waged labor" in fact - are addicted to the
old regimes merely, mostly, of all the accounting behind these
basically 19th century industrial concepts.
'Pyramid'
financial structures in effect, with profits trickling UP to the
global "1%". And the environment, and future generations
BE DAMNED!
Few mainstream
politicians, or accounting firms or treasury departments are close to
having the gumption, enough to start looking at reforming all the
ties between and within the many unsustainable industries,
governments' subsidies, and massive reorientations from the dated
oils-and-ores, petroleum and metals' refining, processing and
deliveries systems, to what an Intelligent, practical managing body
would function like.
"Too big
to encapsulate", into any one party, or government. To
effect the needed adjustments, globally, requires an whole new design
of an international department taking on that cooperative renewal of
managerial approach.
[So, while that
worldwide concept has also to begin, this also actually tends toward
the logic of smaller nations, and their local democratic
government, under a, the, much much larger international, federation.
But that's also beyond todays' political class, or any mythological
monarchic design.]
Plus, there are
other underlying economics issues that HAVE to be addressed,
if Australians, and the species, are serious about reducing things
like, the carbon footprint, waste disposal, Green Energy, etc.
So, all things
considered, we have to correct our accounting habits to move forward
with effective pro-environmental measures.
As the
multinational finance, accounting, military and religion corporations
and parochially selfish people everywhere, are so welded to their
dark ages concepts of profiteering for power, and 'by any means'
for food and a roof, we are lost.
An LNP or ALP
federal govt are the last people we need if we are serious about our
own welfare, incomes, employment, environment and future generations.
Perhaps a small
but healthy start to the necessary corrections is to release cannabis
from it's bad-press, false reputation and illegality as a source of
food, and as a fuel, and as a component of any new-day auto industry?

An Intelligent
Species would disband all current government and parliamentary
structures, have a Global Council of Indigenous and Green managers,
and some 5% of the pollution we suffer today, as a result, in next to
no time.
But I 'have
visions' so the specious myopics have someone to mock.

I saw a couple of
Teslas (didn't hear them) in California recently and was interested
enough to visit a showroom where a chassis and drive train (if you
could call it that) and complete vehicles were on display. They are
absolutely stunning cars and quite practical unless you are embarking
on interstate trips. I've seen only one in Australia so far now I
know what I'm looking for.
One of the big
news stories during my visit was Elon Musk’s search for a location
for a US$5,000,000,000 battery factory to be run energy neutral.
Australia mines lithium in areas of high insolation. Why could we not
be doing this also?
The cost will
come down as development costs are recovered and batteries become
cheaper and there is no doubt that I have bought my last traditional
vehicle.
With all the
automotive closures about to happen I sincerely hope that some of our
engineering talent will be directed towards this new technology but
to it’s going to take a bigger mind than Tony Abbott’s to
incubate this emerging industry.
Me back
IN the last 20
years, perhaps less..., I saw something somewhere, about
"aluminum-cell" batteries.
Obviously, if the
info was genuine, the massive advantage of alum over lead for the
plates, is huge.
I might also be
correct in recalling that the alum-cell batteries were 'removed' from
publicity by the lead-cell industry cartels, exactly like the fossil
oils cartels keep Cannabis demonised.
However, as I
say, above, the species has to move a long long way forward, from all
these archaic designs for energy etc., and so combining technology,
science and R&D, I suspect it's not impossible for us to move
away from the trad batteries concept altogether.
There's a lot of
USA and other Euro websites, suggesting alternatives to these old
energy storage systems, and lots of unsubstantiated ones cracking-on
about 'free energy'. They're too techie and complex for my Luddite
mind.
But I do suspect,
like Tesla himself, there's a trove of free energy waiting for the
species to shout down the fossil fuels and other profit-addicted
providers.
And, to vote down
the current mainstream party bastards who call themselves
'politicians'!
