Interesting comment.  Do you know that the larger companies "have pulled their heads in"?

Maybe they have altered how they do it?  Not saying they have, I just don't see evidence for it either way.   The denial industry has not switched off ... yet.


Just experience as a result of working for them in the recent past. I agree that the denial industry is still active, Just that the players have changed.

Have you read the story about the Australian tax payers paying for the fuel used by coal miners?

"According to the report – and illustrated in chart below – the cost of subsidising the diesel fuel used by just five of the nation’s biggest coal companies – Glencore Xstrata, BHP Billiton, Peabody, Rio Tinto and Anglo American – is around $360 million a year."


Those are the subsidies that Malcolm Turnbull talked about removing. Yes.... good luck with that.
