Demands:
The main demands of the Drummoyne - Lowe - Canada Bay Climate Action Group are:
1. legislate cuts in greenhouse gas emissions in NSW of at 40% on 1990 levels by 2020 (up from 30% because of ice melt evidence and IPCC Bali outcomes)
2. stop the proposed Anvil Hill coal mine as a first step towards stopping the expansion of the Hunter Valley coal industry;
3. introduce a moratorium on new coal-fired power stations without CCS in Australia;
4. introduce a legislated state renewable energy target; 15% by 2012 and 25% by 2020;
5. stop nuclear power in Australia and expansion of uranium exports;
The group will also campaign for implementation of local GHG emissions reducing steps that are within the authority of Canada Bay Council.
