Water Tower 2020

50/50 by 2020

Tathra water tower painted April 2009

5 shires in SE NSW have now adopted a 50/50 by 2020 target. This target, driven by strong community support, has had bipartisan government support at local, state and federal levels. We are the first region in Australia to set a challenging emissions reduction target, with Mike Kelly setting an aspirational 50/50 by 2020 target for the electorate of Eden-Monaro. That puts our region into a position of leadership.I

About this Website

Clean Energy For Eternity was established in 2006, and since then we have been working hard to establish community solutions to climate change.

We have been raising awareness with our human signs and landscape sculptures. We have been changing attitudes with LifeSaving Energy and our Big Swim series. We are embracing economic opportunity with our 50/50 by 2020 targets, and we are looking at bigger picture stuff with our community owned power stations.

Everything we have ever done is on this web site. Every picture we have ever taken is in the gallery section, there is comment from politicians, scientic information about the science, and technical information about solutions.

This is the CEFE blueprint for turning a threat into an opportunity.

In The Balance

24/8/10
The 2010 election campaign was noteable for its lack of vision. No party has emerged as a clear winner, and no party has won a clear mandate to take action on anything. There is disenchantment with the major parties.

Neither of the major political parties have much to say to say about climate change. Both the ALP and the coalition agree to the pathetic target of a 5% reduction in emissions by 2020. This is well below what the science demands. The climate policies of both parties will see a steady rise in Australia’s emissions, and will not get us to a 5% target. The climate policies of both parties provide absolutely no framework for moving beyond a 5% reduction target past 2020. The election result reflects the inadequate response of our politicians to the threat of climate change.

There was only one clear winner in the 2010 Federal election, and that was the Greens. They saw a big swing in their favour, will control the balance of power in the senate, have senate representation in each state and gain a seat in the House of Representatives.

The message for the ALP and the Coalition over the next three years is clear. Don’t expect a clear majority at the next election unless you have a  coherent climate policy that will allow Australia to be a part of a global solution to climate change.

2020 Vision

It is the year 2020, and Eden-Monaro looks quite different to what it was in 2008.

There are some obvious big differences. There is a wind farm on the Monaro, quietly producing more than half of our regions electricity needs. With this wind farm alone, we h
