    Those who follow and allow this 'green agenda' are to blame. There is no 'man made' climate change, live long enough and you will see. The green movement is destroying the very land they say they are saving. If you are over the age of 50 and still believe this lie then wake the hell up! Carbon dioxide is an essential gas - it is NOT a pollutant and it is not heating the planet in the way that they say. Trouble is these green zealots have believed that human activity is destroying the climate for more than a century (and longer) and despite the world not ending throughout their lives they continue to believe it. Remember that in the 70's it was getting too cold. In the 80's it was getting too warm. In the 90's we only had 10 years left. In the 2000's we only had 10 years left. In the 2010's we only had 7 years left. But now we are in the 2020's and we are still here and the end is nowhere in sight! I really couldn't care less if they think that the world is going to end but I care very much about what they are doing to try and stop it.

    Clean safe modern molten salt modular nuclear power is the answer. China is doing it. Even Indonesia. No need for storage, the energy is already stored in the virtually unlimited Thorium fuel we have been gifted. No need for more transmission lines to be built, just use the ones we already have. Google Michael Shellenberger. We cans save the environment whilst saving the climate and stopping coal pollution.

      Is that an intentional loaded question? I mean you could have so easily gone the Snowy 2.0 Project Web site and read their own description. Quote from the project information page................ "Water will be pumped to the upper dam when there is surplus renewable energy production and the demand for energy is low, and then released back to the lower dam to generate energy when electricity demand is high.

  • @andrewday3206
    @andrewday3206 10 месяцев назад

    This project is absolutely fantastic. The amount of energy storage being built is a game changer for the nation. Having 350,000 MW/Hrs of storage is enough stored energy to power over well over 1 million houses for a week straight. Having 2,200 MW of ouput can will power well over 1 million homes. This project will turn wind and solar from intermittent sources into baseload 24/7 power without interruption. This turns wind and solar into a backbone of the electricity grid. This emissions free power will have almost as much output as 4 commercial nuclear reactors, without the nuclear waste issues.

When you already have an ideal scenario existing, with reservoirs at suitable elevations separation within a huge mountainous catchment region, which is competing against national park objectives and values. No easy gig to sort that out to determine what is objectively "better" from all sides.

    • @BrentonSmythesfieldsaye
      @BrentonSmythesfieldsaye 5 месяцев назад

      What do you mean "work better than"? The reason the project exists in the first place, is to actually work in conjunction with excess wind and solar generation. To actually maximise solar and wind power generation availability and supply at times when solar and wind output may have dropped off. In other words, it actually enhances the viability of solar and wind power generation, by capturing generation capacity that would otherwise be wasted and lost. Just like andrewday explained.

    Didn’t National Parks fail to manage fuel loadings in these parks by not allowing hazard reduction burns to be conducted ? And in failing to do so this allowed extremely high fuel loadings and the last fire to absolutely destroy these fragile Alpine Forests and killing 1000’s of animals in the process? Bit of the old Pot calling the Kettle black going on here. NP has failed to manage the number of Brumbies in these areas as well.

      @@andrewday3206 It's a fair and important point to raise. I expect this has had serious talk time behind closed doors. If I read things correctly at the NPAN Website, they claim that there has been other site assessments that would be better suited for pumped hydro projects external to national parks. I would need to check to be sure, but I don't think there would be any other sites that have the gross capacity that the Snowy Scheme would have. Plus have reservoirs already in place at suitable varying altitudes, which obviously would curtail project costs enormously. They are also not happy about the cloud seeding towers and practices that are employed either apparently. Yet at the same time they indeed clearly acknowledge that climate change is impacting the park. It's a dilema it would seem for NPAN and the Kosciuszko National Park, their support obviously and totally for national park objectives and values at this point.

    1.) What is the current percentage of Full MPA Sanctuary Zone Status (no take) worldwide? It was said 30 % is needed. 2.) Have (best) locations (for Full MPA Sanctuary Zone Status) been determined? 3.) What are the 22 nations that support the 30% Full MPA Sanctuary Zone by 2030 (30x30)? 4.) Would it make more sense to have integrated swaths of area vs. fragmented zones for Full MPA? Please explain. 5.) The question is in 3rd paragraph, if you don't count this as a paragraph. Saddened, disappointed, and only slightly shocked that the Australian government doesn't support the 30x30 target because Australia is an island and because of their abysmal record of caring for koala habitat, livestock ex. sheep (muesling and live export trade), and animals in general. Same for what happened to the cuttlefish gathering. : ( Because of the rampant fires, especially the horror of 2019-2020 fire, it IS shocking that Australia is still pro-coal & still NOT pro-environment! I hope it has opened their minds to reason. California has really been ramping up on pro-environmental, sustainable actions because of the fires there. Hawaii is very pro-environmental because of the wildlife and tourism there. I think both of those states also really love their states natural beauty too. The Film Industry fame is also very vocal, wealthy, influential, and proactive with the government in California and Nationally. I think getting stars to be public for a cause has a big impact due to their notoriety and influence. I live in Cleveland, Ohio, USA along Lake Erie (One of the Great Lakes.) The Great Lakes are of great concern and care for all of us that live along the Great Lakes, whether it be American or Canadian. I think that part of the reason is because they are freshwater, easy to stock fish (walleye & perch) in regards to fishing, and probably not as complicated in terms of biodiversity. Are they? Suggestions for additional topics: 1.)Specific courses of action people can do (ex. letter writing campaigns - provide them with a form letter) as a native and Non-Native Australian. 2.) Educate and explain (provide as a printable resource) the different types of fishing, fishing gear and alternative's (ex. Turtle Excluder Devices - TED's). I will add more later if I think of some more.

    The worst thing we could do for our wildlife is to convert more State Forests into the already 6 million hectares of national parks. National parks and their associated environmental activist groups are underpinned by an entrenched lock it up and leave it ideology. This views human intervention as unnatural and denies the need for active fire management. NPWS managers are less than enthusiastic about using fire as a management tool. We then see unprecedented levels of forest fuel leading to high intensity mega fires that kill everything in their path ie. Nov 2019- North Coast NSW.
