Nuclear Fallout

Text reads, 'Nuclear fallout – the first casualties.' People dressed in Victorian suits with bags labelled, 'Green investors,' 'Wind,' 'Solar,' 'Hydrogen,' and 'Batteries', are dying in a pale-yellow green landscape.

Johannes Leak dramatises the aftermath of Peter Dutton’s announcement that, if elected, the Coalition would look to invest in nuclear reactors on existing coal power plant sites. Leak depicts the various green energy options as being peddled by nineteenth-century carpetbaggers, surrounded by stacks of subsidy money.
