What can we do about the situation Peter?
How can we reduce the strain on the Australian community?

Unlike some people I do not want to bend over and take it up the proverbial.
There are to many Australians who are suffering now. And as Paul has said what will it be like in the future.

I see people on this thread with a genuine concern about the welfare of Australians. (not their hip pocket, as some might suggest).

I think one solution might be a de centralisation of power production.
( Have community power generators) run by the local people owned by the local people..
This would be hard to implement in big cities but for rural towns I think it could be achievable. Solar, and wind.

There a problems with base load power and setup costs. But if the Government was serious about reducing greenhouse emissions they might offer some sort of grant.

I guess self sufficient homes are out of the question due to cost. But surely with all of the great minds out there, there is a way.

Cheers
