Dying forests, coral reefs,Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Dying forests, coral reefs, humans, animals etc, get used to it. Soon enough wind, fire and rain will wash the surface clean again. But for now, who will succeed in proposing a comprehensive and integrated plan that works? Liberals alone? no, Labor alone? no Greens and Independents alone? no. “Time passes slowly up here in the mountains”. Huffin ...

Ex old chum I don’t debateWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Ex old chum I don’t debate your theory. It clearly makes no difference where we save emissions (and you may recall that one of my main objections to this tax was that it was designed to push emissions offshore so as to “game” the UN statistics). The problem however is that market forces will dictate that taxpayers purchase the lowest cost ...

Normally I am withWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Normally I am with Examinator but this time not - I am with you, PR . While I agree it is worth stopping pollution anywhere in the world, Examinator, we must first do it here - so we know how it’s done - and then do it elsewhere - but with 90% certainty our overseas efforts are effective. Better to be putting in renewable energy plants in ...

Why is this issue aboutWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Why is this issue about liberal and labour here when Cameron’s team in the UK are doing great work (at least it looks that way in this article: http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2011/may/17/uk-halve-carbon-emissi… )? I suspect it has more to do with the Mad Monk’s eye for politics and desire for the top job than ...

It stands to reason that a small island with so many people is going to have to ...

I did a careful analysis ofWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : I did a careful analysis of the Treasury figure in Ben’s article and the rest of Chapter 5: Australian with carbon pricing in the Treasury Report, together with projections about Australia’s black coal, brown coal and gas exports from US EIA and ABARE . I sent the conclusions to MPs and mainstream media in the following letter (no doubt the ...

Ex I struggle to see any ofWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Ex I struggle to see any of your comments justifying the inclusion of an international crediting system riddled with skewed incentives, cheating and fraud. Skewed incentives in particular are not ideology or dogma. Their existence is a fact and responsible for god knows how many problems currently facing the world. You preach winding back on our ...

PR, Points taken, Abbott hasWednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : PR , Points taken, Abbott has had a free ride and rather proves my point i.e. Appealing to fear tops logic and effort every time. One would be hard pushed to argue that Abbott’s “new big tax on everything” campaign was either responsible or logical given that the detail weren’t known. The old axiom ’ the devil is in the detail’ is true. There ...
