Get your act together Scott Morrison,&#8221; he said.<br \/>\n&#8220;The main message is we&#8217;ve got to reduce emissions,&#8221; Castlemaine&#8217;s Trevor Scott said as he actively supported Friday&#8217;s action.<br \/>\n&#8220;A gas-led recovery is wrong when a renewable-led recovery is what should be happening.&#8221;<br \/>\nMr Scott said a recorded 17 per cent drop in emissions resulting from COVID-19&#8217;s impacts on polluting activities like unnecessary international flights demonstrated the sorts of changes that were possible.<br \/>\nMany passersby contributed to Friday&#8217;s local action by adding yellow flowers to the pile that formed on the steps of the Market Building.<br \/>\n&#8220;If we choose gas now we&#8217;re stuck with gas for 10 years,&#8221; Castlemaine Secondary College student Niamh O&#8217;Connor Smith said.<br \/>\n&#8220;Gas is a fossil fuel and it&#8217;s emitting lots of carbon and methane into the atmosphere and causing global warming.<br \/>\n&#8220;It also damages biodiversity, particularly if it&#8217;s done through fracking.<br \/>\n&#8220;Fracking puts harmful chemicals into the water making it undrinkable for the local people and once it&#8217;s put into the waterways it spreads.<br \/>\n&#8220;This is a message from Castlemaine to our prime minister: we don&#8217;t want taxpayers&#8217; money handed to the gas industry that will wreck our climate and damage our economic recovery.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>MALMSBURY ADDS ITS VOICE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A small group of passionate Malmsbury locals gathered in front of the iconic Malmsbury Viaduct to demonstrate their support for a renewables-led COVID recovery.<br \/>\n&#8220;We want the government to acknowledge the importance of renewable energy and not invest in gas,&#8221; said Jamari Fitzgerald, aged 10.<br \/>\nThe Malmsbury action joined with other small local socially distanced actions in Daylesford, Castlemaine, Maldon and Riddells Creek, and more than 500 other actions across Australia.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6428\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6428\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img
