A stroll in the sadly un-harnessed sunshine
We have a rare opportunity to do something positive here. We're not just fighting the latest devastation of our environment, we can actually start using an energy source both practical and clean for our mains power. That, in itself, would be a huge reduction in our national emissions, but it's also a chance to show the other states that it can (and should) be done. The alternative is using another fossil fuel, which will necessitate further damage to our environment and farmland.
To help promote this campaign, I'm going to take part in the AYCC's Walk for Solar. We're going to walk from Port Augusta to Adelaide. I know most of you can't come on the walk, and that most of you want to see SA powered by baseload renewables. You can still help this campaign by sponsoring me! I need to raise some money to cover the cost of food, water, safety, etc.
Whatever you can spare would be a big help, and you'd be able to brag to all your friends that you helped bring about those awesome solar thermal towers in Port Augusta.
