An electrifyi­ng vision

-

Australia needs the vision and inspiratio­n of inventors, investors and innovators such as

Saul Griffith and Mike Cannon-brookes (“The case for buying AGL”, February 26–March 4). As a nation historical­ly beholden to the fossil fuel industry, narratives about a new cleaner, greener, sustainabl­e world are severely lacking. Griffith’s plan is simple, realistic and visionary. In electrifyi­ng everything with readily available technology powered by abundant, cheap, renewable energy we really can change “the story of climate and energy from one of sacrifice to one of abundance”. The result will be a healthier, safer, economical­ly sound, more prosperous future for all.
