I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

With Peter Dutton pushing ahead with this nonsense “nuclear strategy” - panned by experts globally - it’s worth remembering his fantasy “small modular reactors” cost *four times as much* as renewables. Which are the cheapest option. And save the planet.

Dutton's "small modular reactors" four times the price

"Renewable energy trounces nuclear on generation costs"

"Power planners have found nuclear energy does not stack up for Australia even after considering new parameters, with large-scale solar and big batteries still the lowest-cost option."
