New coal-fired power stations: World 621, Australia zero. Now understand?

Does this perhaps explain why we’re running out of electricity yet paying through the nose? 

New coal-fired generators being built:

China: 299

India: 132

Indonesia: 32

World: 621

Australia: zero

The data was requested by ­Nationals senator and party whip John Williams, who has argued that the carbon emissions produced by the new plants worldwide would eclipse Australia’s total carbon emission profile.

“We don’t have a tent over Australia … emissions are going up around the world because of these generators being built,” ­Senator Williams told The Australian. “We are bowing down to the green agenda which will make no difference to the world’s ­emissions.

“It makes no sense. We will de-industrialise Australia and let everything be manufactured overseas with higher emissions.”
