It is really wild how the fossil fuel industry in Aus has managed to spread the false perception that the Aus economy relies on fossil fuel sector jobs + cash www.industry.gov.au/publications... australiainstitute.org.au/report/clima...

NSW produces a lot of coal, but the public — who owns the coal — gets hardly anything from it. Meanwhile, coal companies reap enormous profits. Remember this spin the next time you hear coal pays for your schools and hospitals. australiainstitute.org.au/post/coal-ro...
