The aim of this website

Is to explore what an individual can do to make a difference. I am absolutely convinced that Global Warming is in progress and that we must do all in our power to reverse the trend. Contact me by commenting on my posts.

Actions that can be taken at five levels: personal, local, state, national and international.

Nuclear Debate yesterday

Yesterday I drove XX kilometres with Patience to attend the debate on Nuclear energy for Australia. It was terrific.

I thought the proponent for nuclear power argued his case more effectively than his opponent.

I have not made up my mind where I stand on this issue. In the past year I have begun to feel less opposed to nuclear power for generating electricity.

Later in the day I found one of my green friends 'M' was still adamantly anti nuclear.

'M' told me to check out these resources:
"A clean energy future for Australia" By Mark Diesendorf, Dr Diesendorf works at the University of New South Wales, Institute of Environmental Studies.

"Beyond Zero Emissions" an Australian non-profit organisation based in Melbourne.
