Australia's Climate Change Immunity

When I first moved to Australia, I was expecting to see solar panels on every house. I expected my apartment building to use the sun as fuel. It made perfect sense. The sun is a cheap source of renewable energy. Exporting Australia’s coal reserves to other countries without much sun made sense, too. With many of the world’s pristine, untouched natural wonders, I assumed that people cared about the environment. At least more than Americans, surely!
