‘Climate change zealots’ are spooking politicians about energy plans

Full Article Source

Sky News host Alan Jones says Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison is correct in saying Australia needs cheap and reliable energy plans, however he is spooked by the Left and their opinions surrounding renewable energy. (The Labor Party) dont know where they stand on energy policy because they dont know where they stand on climate change, carbon dioxide or most importantly, coal fired power, Mr Jones said. Enter Scott Morrison, he is talking about cheap and reliable energy. He says without a future high-tech manufacturing base there can be no jobs growth, all of thats correct. But then he too ... is spooked by the left, by the climate change renewable energy zealots. On the one hand Scott Morrison keeps saying coal is part of the plan, but then talks about a Hunter Valley gas power-plant in New South Wales. Mr Jones spoke with Nationals Senator Matt Canavan, who said the plan to have a gas power-plant in New South Wales wouldnt work. I dont think it will because of the real-world evidence we see before us, Mr Canavan said. We must get our energy prices down ... weve got no hope of bringing manufacturing back to this country unless we do. But weve got to use the natural resources that we are blessed with.
