As the unprecedented Australian bushfire crisis
continues, many Australians are starting to question why, if
the government
has been made aware of the threat of changing climate, it
hasn't moved to mitigate its escalating effects that
droves of scientists assert threaten life on Earth.
Instead, the guy at the helm is the same politician who paraded
a lump of coal in parliament
in February 2017, stating that we shouldn't be scared of
the impacts of its use. Indeed, our current PM sashayed into the
top job as the former one fell in a
emissions reduction policy related incident.
However, in order to get some concrete answers on why the
Coalition government insists on pushing ahead with the fossil fuel
agenda, while great swathes of the public call for climate action,
all you have to do is take a look at Greenpeace's May 2019
documentary Dirty
Power.
