GFG\u2019s announcement to transform Whyalla into a renewable energy super power shows the Coalition Government\u2019s lack of leadership is letting Australians down.
\n\u201cThis is the leadership Australia needs to transition to a new, clean economy,\u201d Greens Senator for South Australia Sarah Hanson-Young said.
\n\u201cSanjeev Gupta\u2019s announcement shows environmental responsibility for a typically dirty industry. This record-investment in renewable energy, sustainable horticulture and recycling thrusts Whyalla into the future and proves the Government wrong on renewables.
\n\u201cThis news is excellent for Whyalla and cements our state as a renewable energy leader. Our renewable energy industry is leading the way and showing the rest of the nation what ambition and good ideas look like.
\n\u201cAustralia is limping far behind on reaching our Paris targets because of this Government\u2019s addiction to fossil fuels. \u00a0Reports today that show the largest investor group in history calling on action on climate change as Mr Gupta announces a historic investment in renewable energy and cleaner industry, shows that \u00a0the Liberal party has completely lost touch with corporate Australia.
\n\u201cThe Greens know that with a bit of ambition, like we\u2019ve seen in Whyalla, Australia could be a leader, not a laggard, when it comes to cleaning up our act and saving the planet. The Coalition Government is simply not up to the task.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
