The power station Cate Blanchett is in front of is a decommissioned one in Battersea, South London.
Naughty, naughty.
A poster on Andrew Bolt's blog picked it up.

It's a mis-representation of the truth, like most of the rest of the add.So its a decommissioned English power station. :dunno: why is that naughty?

It's a bit like showing a picture of an old and worn out aircraft belonging to some Third World airline in an article about Qantas / Virgin / Jetstar maintenance standards.So its a decommissioned English power station. :dunno: why is that naughty?

SOx, NOx, CO2, Hg and Particulates Removed at Ohio Power Plant
Processes that uses an ammonia based solutions to capture SOx, NOx,CO2, Hg and particulates from power plant flue gas have or will be demonstrated at First Energy's R.E. Burger Plant in Shadyside, Ohio. The ECO technology produces a commercially salable, ammonium sulfate nitrate fertilizer co-product, reducing operating costs and avoiding landfill disposal of waste. The CO2 is to be recovered and prepared for sequestration in another process.
Powerspan has successfully pilot tested its proprietary post-combustion CO2 capture process at an existing coal-fired power plant – one of the few companies to have achieved this significant milestone.

You don't get it?...
Just have another think about it - the answer might eventually work it's way past all that labor propaganda in the brain...
A twist ??
Presenting the truth does not necessarily equate to being in a twist.
Who knew Cate Blanchett was so wicked? Finally, she's been exposed, and a good thing too.
If you've missed the weekend kerfuffle, we've learnt that Cate Blanchett is the wrong kind of rich ”” a person of means and profile prepared to stand up for causes more general than her own self interest.
What was the woman thinking?
Wealthy Australian women entering the public policy debate seems to be fashionable at present.
Last year, Australia's richest person Gina Rinehart ”” worth $10.3 billion on last count ”” climbed on the back of a truck with a megaphone to campaign against the mining super profits tax.
This is how The Telegraph lead its page seven story of Rinehart's public protest at the time:
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd had to dodge Australia's first ever protest rally led by billionaires as he set about spending a few billion himself buying tax support yesterday.
Oh what it may have been in the Telegraph's hands if it was prepared to apply some consistency:
Australia's richest woman says hard working mums and dads trying to keep their suburban small business afloat should pay more tax so she can pay less.
Presumably Blanchett has nothing to gain from a carbon tax. Rinehart had a lot to gain in derailing the mining tax.
The lesson in the Telegraph world?
No good deed goes unpunished.
And the Children Overboard affair...was that a mis-representation of the truth?
Should i be in a twist about it? or just accept that politicians lie all the time and spin the message of the day to appeal to there supporters....the power station is a prop in an ad.
Can anybody really believe this untrustworthy Labor government are not funding the ads?
Read a great article on the weekend that most people don't think for themselves and are tribal in nature. They need the leaders of their tribe to chnge their opinion and no amount of science etc. will switch them. They should have got Marious Kloppers and people like that to do the adds. They are preaching to the converted with Cate Blanchett.
But I'm guessing you believe that only applies to "deniers", whereas alarmists are all completely independent thinkers?
Cates evil, a terrible Australian, boooo hisssss
Blanchett exposed for the crime of speaking up
