Bob Brown rebukes Tasmanian windfarm project as the new Franklin dam

Quote:
Bob Brown, one of Australia’s most prominent environmental activists, says he opposes a major windfarm development because its towers will affect Tasmania’s natural beauty and could kill endangered wildlife without any economic benefit for the state. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-n ... anklin-dam

Emissions Reduction Minister Angus Taylor yesterday said: “This is a classic case of Greens’ hypocrisy. The Greens love nothing more than to lecture Australians about their preferred source of energy generation, but when it’s in Bob Brown’s backyard, wind farms are suddenly a bad idea.” https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation ... 4ddef0ddd0
