While renewable energy is hugely popular amongst the Australian public with more than two-thirds of Aussies supporting building more wind-farms, PM Tony Abbott is once again way out of step with the country he is supposed to represent, admitting this morning that he has been actively working to reduce growth of wind energy in Australia.
The PM said they were ‘visually awful’ and claimed potential health impacts, despite a Senate Inquiry being told just yesterday that there is no evidence of this.
Only last year was Tony Abbott telling us that coal, a major contributor to the catastrophic impacts of climate change, was ‘good for humanity’.
