Here in Australia we are witnessing the impact of climate change on our water systems, droughts, our Great Barrier Reef etc etc.There is a push for closing down coal and having 100% renewables. But we produce only 1.5% of the world's carbon. To protect our environment (and vice versa) we need everyone in the world to contribute. With premature closure of nuclear plants in the USA, reactors in Japan not coming back on line and planned closures in Europe our efforts in Australia may be meaningless if fossil fuels are not replaced. Please phase out coal first; then once replaced, look at nuclear.
