In Queensland state owned power companies have turned down nearly 170-thousand air conditioners half a dozen times in the past couple of months, accessing the units through special meters which you, the consumer, have installed for a cash rebate.
Glenn Garry, President of the Victoria EV Association, joined the podcast to chat about the club, what it takes to be a member and how they are creating change and promoting renewable energy in the community, as well as all levels of government. We also chatted about the natural connection between EV owners and the transition to solar!

Prime Minister Scott Morrison is still as yet to set a date for the upcoming Federal election, but we know that it will have to take place sometime in May.
In preparation, Mamamia asked you what the most important issues are when it comes to deciding how you will vote, and perhaps unsurprisingly climate change came out as the number one priority.
So in this election special, The Quicky speaks to all three of the major parties, and an Independent candidate to find out where they stand on climate change, and what they will do if you vote them in to power.
