    That’s what I mean about kicking the can down the road.

    We’re jumping to electric vehicles so fast with very few logistical solutions.

    May as well go to nuclear and deal with that waste. Save the steps and in 50 years we will find. A solution for it

      Too slow to build, too expensive, and too mired in politics and legal issues. So the only result will be that coal and gas stick around for even longer. Which is precisely why conservative parties are pushing nuclear.

        To slow to hard was the issue 20 years ago.

        The tree planted 20 years ago is better than the tree planted today but in 20 years time today’s tree is there

          The previous LNP government could not build car parks.

          There is zero chance there will be nuclear power plants in Australia in the next 20 years.

          Renewables are cheaper and faster to build. In Australia with the renewable resources we have nuclear just doesn’t make sense to start building today.
