Shockingly irresponsible behaviour comparing Coal to Asbestos as a danger and health hazard.

Coal posses no immediate danger to health in the same way as Asbestos.

Despite the dangers of asbestos mining and use being known since early last century, Wittenoom was not shut down until 1966. The use of asbestos in Australia was not completely banned until 2003.

www.asbestossafety.gov.au/about-asbestos/history-asbestos

Given the impact of coal burning on the atmosphere and climate, I reckon the comparison may be a bit of a stretch, but is reasonable - as is the policy to phase out Australia's participation in coal by 2030.

It will certainly put more focus and economic emphasis on renewables, which is the only sustainable future.

ps you can find 8 pretty solid Green's policies here greens.org.au/policies Whether or not you agree with them, they are certainly not a single issue/policy party.

pps I am not a big fan of the Greens :)

Oops you didn't agree, poor you and facts will be lost in translation!

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so stupid people won't be offended

One hasn't lived unless you took the billy cart to the rail line & collected coal from the track to take home for mum. I stopped doing it about 1950 with me bro.

Further evidence:

Japan’s environment minister has announced he will “in principle” oppose any new plans to build or expand coal-fired power stations, as further signs emerge of a dramatic energy pivot by Australia’s top export market for thermal coal.

Guardian Australia reported in March that Japan had cancelled a large percentage of planned investments in coal-fired power, while Japanese investment vehicles were ditching coal projects and instead seeking to back large-scale renewable projects across Asia......

........ A faster-than-anticipated transition by the Japanese energy sector, which buys 39% of Australian-mined thermal coal, would affect future volumes and the viability of some new mines.
