Community groups will deliver an explosive new report to the office of Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, during a peaceful protest in Sydney on Monday.
The rally will be attended by community groups, an expert engineer, volunteer firefighters and independent politicians, calling for state and federal governments across the nation to take immediate action to fix the Rewiring the Nation plan and begin undergrounding new transmission infrastructure.
