Who rated this drivel 5/5. I think Garnaut and his team should promise to undergo any surgery in the next 20 years in operating theatres powered by wind, or sunlight or waves,or....shit (all renewable sources of energy. Oncethis aspect of renewables is understood the apparent enthusiasm may well recede.
we have a real problem, if we are not sticking our noses in Indonesia human rights we sticking our noses and snouts into the worlds carbon emissions. So much bullshit. Garnaut has admitted on 7.30 report that aAustralias cCO2 emissions are no more than 1% of world emissions. So if the rest ofthe world continues to produce CO2 and get richer, and we reduce our CO2 by 20% world emissions stand at 99.80% of current emissions andwe are poorer. Hmmmmm. I wonder about that.
