Australian Labor Victorious - but not Green Enough

advertisement

Decent, pro-Peace, pro-Environment and pro-Planet Australians were delighted with the result of the recent Australian Federal Election that terminated the incompetent, nearly 12 year rule of the climate criminal, climate change sceptic, Bush-ite Coalition and gave Labor under Kevin Rudd a "Rudd-slide" victory and a majority of about 2 dozen seats in the Australian House of Representatives. Further, many Labor seats were won with Australian Green "preferences" in Australia's "preferential voting" system and the Greens may end up with about half a dozen seats in the Senate.

Rudd Labor is VASTLY better than its climate criminal predecessor, the utterly irresponsible, climate change sceptic, Kyoto non-signatory, Bush-ite Coalition. Rudd Labor will sign Kyoto and increase renewable energy supply from about 1% to 20% by 2020 - but it is still NOT GOOD ENOUGH in relation to constraining greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as explained below.
