Energy: batteries, fossils, and HESC

Wednesday, 28 June 2023 - 9:00am to 10:00am
A photo of many people of all ages standing in front of a tractor and holding placards, with many people holding a large handmade banner in the foreground which reads: WE DECLARE OUR COMMUNITIES GASFIELD FREE. There is sext superimposed over the photo which reads "No More Gas: Community Resistance to gas development in Victoria.

This week on City Limits we speak with Professor Paddy Moriarty about electric vehicles, travel-associated pollution, issues in supply chains of common batteries, and overall energy efficiency.

 Later we have an extended chat with Freja Leonard, No More Gas campaign coordinator at Friends of the Earth Vic about fossil fuel and renewables industries in this country, the proven (wrong) tech behind carbon capture and storage, the proposed HESC project to export dirty brown coal hydrogen from Gippsland to Japan via Westernport, and more

 Sign the petition to stop the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain project here.
