Dark cloud hangs over project
John Pettigrew, Bunbartha
It's election madness.
Both our federal and state governments have just endorsed and supported a project ``transforming'' brown coal into a black coal equivalent for export from Gippsland.
The project will use power generated by burning brown coal (the most polluting of all power sources) to process and reduce the carbon emissions potential of brown coal to be exported (as black coal equivalent) to Vietnam.
This project will increase carbon emissions both nationally and internationally....
