The Bloodwood Tree

The Australian lobby group Getup has launched a campaign targeted at both the Government and opposition, aimed to reduce Australia’s dependence on oil. The campaign is intended to tackle the Peak Oil issue at the same time as reducing greenhouse emissions.

Getup is asking people to write emails, asking for

1. massive federal investment in public transport,
2. laws for dramatically more efficient cars, and
3. an Emissions Trading Scheme which includes transport.
