Clean Energy for Eternity

By RICHARD MOFFATT

CLIMATE change is an extremely scary and challenging issue for us all to face.

It is not the least bit surprising to see a large proportion of the population denying climate change or slotting it in the 'too hard basket'.

Others just ignore it, or tell themselves that they play two small a part to make a difference.

The thing we resist the most as human beings is change. The greater the change, the greater the resistance.

But we have the ability to prevent a worsening climate situation and our individual efforts can make an enormous difference.

Clearly prevention is the most sensible path. In living history we have seen some monumental changes come from the 'too hard basket' - efforts such as the ozone layer, abolition of apartheid and the non-smoking movement.

When enough of the population are talking about a problem, change will follow.

Clean Energy for Eternity is planning a massive landscape sculpture in the Bega Valley. It involves discarded washing machines, dishwashers and dryers.

These taken-for-granted, energy insatiable devices that are servants to our consumerist lifestyles will be rearranged in a thought provoking moment of madness in the near future.

Keeping climate change in the general conversation is part of CEFE's commitment to raising awareness.

Preventing climate change is about common sense, firstly reducing power consumption and secondly by using clean energy.

Clean energy is available to your door through the existing power grid system. Connection is as simple as a phone call or completing an online application.

Climate change is our responsibility. You can choose to make a difference.
