BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.

THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

This state’s power prices are plummeting as it nears 100% renewables

South Australia is proving to the world that relying largely on wind and solar energy with battery back-up is incredibly cheap, with electricity prices tumbling by 30 per cent in a year and sometimes going negative

Similar situation in New Zealand. A lack of leadership means we're still far more reliant on expensive, polluting oil than we needed to be. But it can change quickly with the right policies in place. And right now is a good time to start. #MakeOilHistory www.canberratimes.com.au/story/921379...

We're complaining about fuel prices, but most of us drive petrol guzzlers

You'll pay less for fuel if you drive a smaller car.

The UK's biggest energy firm has seen a 50% rise in solar panel sales after the US-Israel war with Iran pushed oil and gas prices up.

The oil industry's inevitable and necessary demise is looming faster than ever.

To end the oil wars — and the #ClimateCrisis — we must end the oil industry. Same struggle, same urgency. #MakeOilHistory

The way to achieve world peace is to end our dependence on oil. With the added benefit that if we do it quickly enough, we might be able to avert the climate crisis in time to enjoy the peace. #MakeOilHistory

BOOM! The UK government has announced that it will BAN exploration of new oil and gas fields. Another win for sustained people-powered campaigning to end fossil fuel dependence. (And shows again how far out of touch the NZ Govt is with its move in the opposite direction) #MakeOilHistory
