ULE wood heater claims are akin to the bullshit fossilfool lies of "clean coal", "CC&amp;S", &amp; "natural gas being a clean replacement for coal". Arguing about shades of grey is disingenuous, when the black &amp; white clear answer is that we MUST STOP putting more carbon into Gaia's lungs.

It’s a well worn path to inequitable wealth redistribution to the top. </p><p>&lt;Quoting from Wikepedia&gt; In 2008, the State Government passed the Water and Sewerage Corporations Act 2008 [4] as a result of a report from the taskforce. The Act transferred council-owned water and sewage assets to three new entities: Southern Water, Ben Lomond Water and Cradle Mountain Water. A fourth entity, Onstream, provided shared services to the corporations, including payroll, billing and procurement. The state's government and the 29 Local Government councils of Tasmania became joint owners of the corporations, with Onstream being jointly owned by the three corporations. These changes took place in July 2009. &lt;end quote&gt;</p><p><a href="https://rssfeed.media/@abcfeeds/114905481339309521" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rssfeed.media/@abcfeeds/114905</span><span class="invisible">481339309521</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/TasWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TasWater</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AusPol</span></a></p>
