“Australia’s last chance”: BZE publishes renewables powered Million Jobs Report
Australian think-tank Beyond Zero Emissions (BZE), perhaps most notable for its prescience regarding the renewable energy potential of the Northern Territory, has released what could be its most prudent and timely publication yet, its Million Jobs Plan.
The publication is timely because Australia is at a crossroads, and of all countries, Australia needs to be particularly prudent at a crossroads because our roads are so very long. We might not have time to double-back. In reality, Australia has been at this crossroads for at least a decade, evidenced by the seemingly indefinite imbroglio that has been the political climate wars. But the Covid-19 pandemic and the resultant necessity of a planned economic recovery means that Australia needs to make a decision about which road it is going to take.
