Sounds a bit high.

This is what the CSIRO is saying in April.

"A majority of Australians want the transition towards renewable energy to happen at a "moderate" pace and most are unwilling to accept higher bills to pay for it, according to a major survey by the country's top scientific organisation.

But most Australians remain supportive of the broader shift away from fossil fuels and four out of five would "at least" tolerate living within 10 kilometres of renewable energy infrastructure.

In what it said was the biggest poll of Australians' attitudes to the transition, the CSIRO found almost half of those surveyed felt the shift should be moderately paced, while 40 per cent wanted it to be faster and more extensive.Just 13 per cent of respondents preferred a low-change scenario."

Shock horror, Australians are unwilling to pay for something!

Usual selfishness from Australians, only looking after their own pockets.
