Jezz... just watching Gillard on TV at the Press Club...

Just announced that she's cutting all "carbon abatement" schemes... not only sequestration... but solar.... :shock:

Somehow she seems to be figuring that will put pressure on setting a carbon price...

Yeah that's a bit crap...

But Ms Gillard flagged cuts to spending programs and caps on others to deliver the billions needed for the rebuilding effort.

Programs which will be scrapped or deferred include the cash for clunkers scheme, the Green Car Innovation Fund, carbon capture flagship programs, the Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute, the Green Start program, and the Solar Hot Water Rebate scheme.


Still can;t say I'm totally upset that the they are going to stop throwing money at geosequestration.

I won't have to pay the flood levy because I don't earn enough... :headbang: :lol:

Yep, I'm not upset by the canning of the sequestration components...

But it worries me that it appears to reflect on the governments priorities as far as "environmental" issues are concerned...
