Coalition nuclear power plan

Friends of the Earth Australia has slammed Opposition Leader Peter Dutton’s release of the Coalition nuclear policy, describing it as a “nuclear nightmare” and a “cynical ploy to keep burning coal and gas”.

Renfrey Clarke writes that some of Peter Dutton’s nuclear power plan “facts” are comedic — in a very dark kind of way. But the Coalition’s endorsement of nuclear will have a deadening effect on investment in renewables.
