Environmental Destruction

[pmccarthy]

This morning's story on the King Valley (Vic) solar farm is most upsetting. Suffice to say the Victorian government has overridden the planning approvals process and ignored environmental assessments to destroy a beautiful part of Australia. The best analogy is the way the USSR destroyed the Aral Sea in Kazakhstan back in the day, in the name of what they saw as progress. We in Victoria are living in a frightening authoritarian state led by what is effectively a dictatorship.

How is a solar Array, Environmental destruction? One SOB reckons it will catch fire, "Because it's Lithium isn't it?" Wang Floods often and I suppose cattle don't hurt Frogs MUCH.. That area used to be A nationals stronghold.  Sophy Mirabella was the Member who lost her seat, deservedly. She was a protege of T Abot. The Local Paper is a resume of Notables Tea and Scones occasions. Very Inward thinking and Parochial.   Nev
