Portland mayor, Geoff White explains "Because there's a couple of hundred jobs involved, we believe this is a renewable energy hub here in Portland. Councils have an extremely important role...because of the issues that surround climate change globally. We would like to think that here in this Shire we are doing our bit to be part of the debate and to find our way forward to deal with the climate change issues that are emerging".Locations:Australia-Oceania-Portland (Australia)-Victoria (Australia)Date:27 Jan, 2009Credit:© Greenpeace / Dean SewellMaximum size:3504px X 2336pxKeywords:Day-Energy-Energy efficiency-KWCI (GPI)-Landscapes-Men-One person-Outdoors-Portraits-Renewable energy-Wind energy-Wind farms-Wind turbinesShoot:Renewables Documentation: The People Behind the Renewable Energy ProjectsPortraits of the people involved in pioneering renewable energy projects across Australia.Related Collections:Renewable Energy (All Photographers)Renewables Documentation: Australia (All Photographers)
