The federal Coalition has declared at the Cop28 climate summit that it will back a global pledge to triple nuclear energy if the opposition leader, Peter Dutton, becomes prime minister, but will not support Australia tripling its renewable energy.
Speaking on the sidelines of the conference in Dubai, the opposition’s climate change and energy spokesperson, Ted O’Brien, also said a Coalition government would consider supporting Generation III+ large-scale nuclear reactors, and not just the unproven small modular reactors it has strongly touted.
The statement at the global summit confirmed the Coalition was on a markedly different path to Labor. The Albanese government last week joined more than 120 countries in backing a pledge to triple renewable energy and double the rate of energy efficiency by 2030, but did not sign up with 22 countries that supported tripling nuclear power by 2050.
While only 11% of countries at the talks – mostly nations that already have a domestic nuclear energy industry – backed the nuclear pledge, O’Brien declared “Cop28 will be known as the nuclear Cop”

So i’d be down for name changes like this. Maybe c/Perth - WA, c/Melbourne - Vic
It’s too late now but it could have been interesting to have tried something different than doing exactly what reddit evolved into. Evolution being a long process.
Once I saw environment issues only being posted into cities, I knew it was too fragmented. The lack of crossposting on the apps, or posting to multiple at once, probably doesn’t help. And then your feed gets multiple repeats.
Just can’t see a way around it.
Maybe i’m not understanding the issue properly.
Why are we unable to make name changes of communities to essentially reclasify them? And at the same time consolidate/remove some of the communities and tip them into broader subject area communities?
Nothing is stopping you. Getting it done is the hard part.
Good luck.
