Just a brief post this one to jot down a few thoughts. First is that this is the first day of the CO2 price legislation hitting parliament in Australia.

NRMA will lose me as a member if they insist on trying to lobby to get petrol exempted having a CO2 price.

I make no secret of it, I think spending $222m of tax dollars to fund proselytising, dodgy chaplains in Australian public schools is atrocious. Here are some suggestions on how the money could have been used.

Had a letter published in the SMH on a climate change denier’s wilful misquoting of scientists on climate change. He claimed climate change was wrong because he read an article wrong!

Some random future ideas on government doing solar (following on, as promised in my earlier blog about South Australia’s solar plans). Part 1 of a set of ideas for Australia’s future.
