Description

Latest data shows carbon capture & storage (CCS) is a scam. Why are foreign multinational gas exporters getting subsidies from Australian taxpayers for tech that doesn't work?

Westy talks about the 7,000 protestors who gathered in Newcastle to blockade the coal port, demanding an end to new fossil fuel projects. But there’s more to the story—like the $14.5 billion of taxpayer-funded subsidies flowing into the pockets of fossil fuel exporters, often for projects that don’t even deliver on their promises (hello, Chevron’s Gorgon CCS debacle).
