"We can be the smart country but it needs intelligent direction from the top, when has that happened."
Never! It's sad .
Very one goes on and on about job losses, stuffed economy and there's a TRILLION dollars industry just waiting to be utilised.
If use renewable where, Clean coal where we can't as well as increasing energy efficiency. This is the direction we should be heading towards.
If every building is self sufficient and efficient as possible, then street, then suburb, then town, state so on so forth. From the ground up. Base load power from fossil fuels would be negligible
