Round one – a price on carbon : Comments

By Sophie Trevitt, published 15/3/2011

Conservative forces failed on Saturday to prove their rhetoric of a 'people's revolution' against a carbon tax.

Just remember that your (Australian) government just promised
you by the middle of 2011 a whopping carbon tax on the basis of the bogus
''human-caused'' climate change scenario.
Hey, isn't it interesting how they don't mention ''Global
Warming'' any more, but just ''Climate Change'' - you know why? It's
because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these
global warming bull artists got caught with their pants
down.
And just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions
Trading Scheme (that whopping new tax)
imposed on you, that will achieve absolutely nothing except
make you poorer. It won't stop any volcanoes from erupting, that's
for sure..
But hey, relax, give the world a hug and have a nice
day!
PS: I wonder if Iceland is buying carbon
offsets?

You can lead a dumb ass to water but you can't make a dumb ass drink.

Will a dumb ass go to the embedded links, or the sources referenced? Maybe.

Will a dumb ass understand, or learn? Probably not.

it's easier to pull the wool over the eyes of academics & football fans than people with sense.

A price on carbon is for real, it,s about time you moved on. Denying is not going to change a thing.
