tony $2050 tax per year seems quite a precise figure , how exactly have you arrived at this ? over the australian population ? adults , tax payers and if so at what rate stun us all with your marvellous graphs and logic to show how you have pulled this figure . Or are you relying on the same type of people providing figures as may well have provided the senarios for global warming .
Personally i feel that pv panels on the majority of homes and work places , solar hot water or preheating water throughout australia and large numbers of wind farms would be a huge environmental improvement than running huge coal fired power stations (that are only around 30 % efficient in converting their energy to electricity ) and in Victoria's case are about the heaviest power polluters in the world .
