The author of the article (see link in post) and founder of Climate Salad, Mick Liubinskas is pictured here on the left, our Chair Geoff Andrews, presented for Capricorn Power at the 2024 Melbourne Climate Tech Showcase Expo held on June 4 to the Australian Climate Tech Community with Mick in the background listening from the side. This article discusses the Barton heat engine and where it fills a gap in the renewable energy market. "The mid-market is also massive, and it’s been overlooked. That makes it a huge opportunity."

I've voted for all Australian parties at times but I am quite disappointed that the Liberal party put Trumpet of Patriots with their bigotry and lies before the Labor party.

Huge loss of respect.

Gotta love to see the wonderful contagion of shared joy.

Kudos to my bus driver who's singing to pop songs like he's in front of an audience of 10,000!

How might this majority’s actions – as citizens, as consumers, as voters – change?"

If you offer your kids ice cream to get them to cooperate you will always lose.

Either you give it to them and they get a sugar high and are worse.

Or you don't give it to them and they hate you and distrust you.
