Community Survey on World Environment Day
On World Environment Day, Saturday June 5, Safe Climate Perth activists spent a few hours in Northbridge with a stall focussed on the 100% renewables campaign.We used a survey developed by the national 100% renewables campaign, which proved an effective way to engage people in discussion and develop our understanding of community attitudes.
We will be collating and presenting the results when we have a larger sample. Our initial results indicate that community members surveyed overwhelmingly think
- the Australian government is not doing enough to promote renewable energy;
- creating clean energy jobs should be a priority for the Australian government;
- taxpayer money should go to developing renewable energy, not subsidising fossil fuels;
- Australia should develop a plan to move to 100% renewable energy; and
- WA should meet energy needs by renewable energy and efficiency, not expanding coal-fired power production.
