Welcome Today Tonight Viewers

February 26, 2009 @ 19:17 By Gavin Webber 3 Comments

 

Today Tonight ran the story this evening at 1830.  It was about the emissions reductions that ordinary Australians are increasingly making that, under the proposed CPRS, will not make one bit of difference to this country’s overall GHG emissions.  A sorry state of affairs, and one that needs to be corrected before the legislation goes through parliament.

GetUp! also have a campaign that is fighting for change in the area.  Have a look at the campaign details at this link. We all want to be able to make our personal efforts count, and not give big emitters any further incentive to increase their GHG emissions.  Have a look, and please sign the petition if you feel inclined.

Thanks for visiting, if you are new to my blog, I welcome you.  Stay for a while and have a look around, there are over 300 articles about sustainable living to read.  If you would like to see the segment again, Channel 7 may post it at their TT Video site tomorrow.  In the mean time, I have recorded the segment, and am processing the video now.  I hope to have it up on the blog tonight.

Gavin

    I’m looking forward to seeing the video, though it’s a bit sad that our efforts aren’t going to make a difference. I hope I misunderstood that part.

    Awesome Gav, glad your interview finally went to air! I didn’t catch it though, so hopefully I’ll get to see your recording.

    Coincidentally, I just posted about the Rudd CTS as well, linking to the same petition! Hopefully they’ll get heaps of signatures with all this publicity.
