The votes were cast, the decision is in, now to catch up on lost time....

Australians have voted to reject the politics of denialism on climate change and have unequivocally demanded we join those nations who want their energy future centred around renewable technologies. Hopefully now, universities, scientists and businesses, small and large, will work together for mutual benefit to make this country a leader once more in clean, renewable energy.

Australians will then be able to join with those other nations who have demonstrated foresight and a willingness to tackle one of the greatest challenges to face the human race and all life as we know it on this planet.

For the first time in the history of this world we have the power to directly affect our future, we can choose to ignore the warnings science and nature are providing, or, we can actively work towards minimising our mark on the planet, securing a future for ourselves and those who will inherit our world.
