Energy Policy: General Doctrine
Energy policy should be judged by reliability, strategic resilience, affordability, environmental stewardship and long-term human welfare rather than loyalty to one technology.
Policy catalogueEnvironment, Land and Settlement
DerivedEnvironmental stewardship includes prudent climate mitigation and adaptation, but climate policy does not justify unlimited centralized control or policies that impose disproportionate hardship for negligible benefit.
Climate risks should be addressed through practical environmental policy, technological development, resilient infrastructure and effective international cooperation where problems genuinely cross borders.

Nature is an inheritance entrusted to humanity rather than a commodity without limit or a divinity, and should be stewarded accordingly.
Fossil fuels should not be prohibited ideologically irrespective of their strategic or economic function, but unnecessary pollution and avoidable dependency should be reduced.
Renewable energy should be supported where technically sound, economically reasonable and compatible with landscapes, communities and grid reliability.
