it doesnt cook my dinner and it doesnt do my ironing...but somehow I am going to be paying for it with an arm and leg in the future.


I am sure if we stopped talking about it it would go away and never be heard of again. a bit like the pinkbatts.. who talks about them anymore?..even the NBN has lost its lustre.. maybe all the experts on here are sick of it too... we can live in hope!

The Coalition and Labor both have big new taxes on carbon pollution so the games over..The only deniers these days are fringe dwelling loonies modelling themselves on the Uni Bomber    :D

The only party not making the carbon tax neutral is the Liberal Party..The Labor Party and the Greens have a policy of making the tax revenue neutral and for those like myself who have a small carbon footprint..we will save money.
Cods, its up to you, if you dont want to change from being wasteful you will eventually be forced to by paying higher prices, some of us are smarter than that.
Im starting to think you deniers really have no idea what its all about.
I will repeat myself..you will only pay higher prices in the long run if you refuse to change..and that is no ones fault but your own.

The multi-party climate change committee is edging closer to deciding on what the nation's future carbon price will be, the Australian Greens say.   :)

The federal government wants to introduce carbon pricing laws to parliament by September, with the aim of having them passed by the end of the year and a fixed price to start from July 1, 2012.

The multi-party climate change committee - minus Prime Minister Julia Gillard - is meeting in Canberra this weekend to continue their deliberations in a more informal fashion.

Greens Senator Christine Milne said while the group had begun to bring all its findings together, agreement on a carbon price was unlikely to be finalised in the next 36 hours.

"Whilst it is unlikely this weekend we'll come out with anything definite, what we will be able to do is put together a lot of the puzzle that we've been working on in the last several months," she said today.

"It's complex and now is the time to bring it all together."

Independent MP Rob Oakeshott agreed the controversial carbon pricing issue probably wouldn't be put to bed anytime soon.

"There is agreement there in the mix," he said as he headed into the meeting.

"I hope we can get it but we've got a long way to go before we can get there."

Fellow independent Tony Windsor said it would be impossible to get an agreement on a carbon price by tomorrow night.

"That won't happen, the Productivity Commission haven't given their report ... and there's other international work that's got to be delivered to the committee as well," he said.

Meanwhile, the Business Council of Australia has called for a low carbon price of $10 a tonne that would increase slowly to minimise the need for household and business compensation.   :(

"[It would also recognise] the limited opportunities for domestic emissions reduction in the early years and in the absence of international linkage," the council said in its submission to the climate change department.

It warned that the Australian economy had experienced a significant downturn that was still impacting on many industries and the introduction of a carbon price would lead to extra costs for businesses and consumers.

The council recommended the Productivity Commission carry out regular reviews of the progress of other comparable countries and that all trade-exposed industries be eligible for a 100 per cent allocation of their permits to offset the cost.

"The cost impost on trade-exposed industries of any policy to price greenhouse gas emissions should be fully offset to ensure Australia's policy to price greenhouse gas emissions is trade and investment neutral," it said.

Senator Milne said the council's proposal was laughable.   ;D

"The council ought to be embracing a market mechanism ... the fact is we have to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and we have to transform the economy," she said.   ;)

"What they are proposing, a $10 price and then 100 per cent compensation for anyone who is trade exposed, just isn't a realistic contribution to the debate."   :(

Regarding the above post....

Colin Barnett is on the record as saying the business chamber of wa was being unrealistic as little as a few months ago.... It wasn't regarding Climate Change but he still said it!

It won't take too long to join the dots if a respected journalist sees a story coming together.

ABBOTT IS LOSING MOMENTUM AND THIS SITUATON IS UNSUSTAINABLE FOR THE BORN TO RULE PARTY!

THE NBN will be soon be supported by the many opportunites afforded to W.A. if it wins the SKA project: THIS WILL EAT INTO ABBOTTS ABILITY TO BREATHE IN THE MEDIA IF HE DOESN'T START SHOWING SOME POSITIVE ACTION!

This is all according to my obviously humble opinion!
