Wow, after a mild absence not much has changed. Worshippers at the altar of denial spruik more of the same.

I agree that Garnaut doesn't go far enough. Scientists are typically conservative in their estimates. Garnaut has taken those estimates and made further concessions. Rudd will take those concessions and water them down some more. Leaving no change required.

Nevertheless, the uneducated and self serving will wail "my poor economy, the sky will fall!!". Andrew Bolt will confuse his graphs, and his followers will think his faeces the perfume of roses.

I'll check back again in a few weeks. Just to see if any who sup of the chalice of denial can bring a reasoned argument to bear. Toodeloo!

IanC ... and others.

Have you been following Professor Jolliffe's dialogue at Tamino's site?

Please read carefully to what he is saying.

Would anyone else like to comment on Ian Jolliffe's post?
