The One Legged Stool
The Carbon Sense Coalition submission in response to the Government Green Paper on The Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme is here in full [PDF, 70 KB].
The recommendations are:
- Abandon attempts to get global or national support for an Emissions Trading Scheme or any other carbon emissions reduction strategy.
- Do not introduce ETS by stealth, by legislating for the whole reporting and compliance structure but with so many tax exemptions and compensations that most people do not notice the change. Once it is in place, and no matter what is promised, the Emissions Tax burden will rise, no matter what the Climate
does. - Accept “adapting to climate change” as the sole leg of Australia’s Climate Policy.
- Support policies that allow markets to ration scarce resources.
- Apply policies that impose costs and deterrents on real polluters.
