University Of Melbourne says “The continued occupation of university sites presents an unacceptable risk to the safety, security, and important work of our entire community.”

Melbourne: Australia's largest city also has an issue with fossil fuels that is not being addressed. 80% of melburnians live in units. The bulk of those use gas - Victoria is 80% gas consumption.
AFAIK, we have no real plan or funding to get us off gas before 2030. #auspol #climate #melbourne
#Otd 52 yrs ago (May 15, 1972) an international Clean Air Conference in Melbourne heard about carbon dioxide build up, from Oz scientists Dyer and Pearman.

100% renewable electricity has no useful meaning when we can't access it and we're continuing to approve and fund fossil fuels. Melbourne = 80% gas, 80% units with no access to solar or electrifying hot water/ovens.

Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with just 5 hrs of storage (24 GW / 120 GWh)
Results:
last week: 93.1% RE
last 142 weeks: 99.1% RE (1/4)

I’m so glad we have a housing solution in Melbourne from developers: poor people just need to stop being poor. Why? Because real estate too hard to sell, we can only sell to rich people.
