I don’t suppose the fact that he is a senior executive and shareholder* in a number of Australian mining companies, and thinks that Carbon Reduction measure impact their profitability, has anything to do with his views...

*He is currently the non-executive deputy chairman of KEFI Minerals, independent non-executive director of Ivanhoe Australia Limited, chairman of TNT Mines Limited, non-executive director of Niuminco Group Limited, non-executive director of Silver City Minerals Limited, and director of Roy Hill Holdings and Queensland Coal Investments.
Instead of looking at the background from which people come, would it not be a better idea to actually listen to what they are saying?

No, of course, because that would expose the futility of your arguments.

Address the post, and stop trying to divert attention from the truth.

tl:dr - we polluted the crap out of our countries and the planet in the past, developing countries need to do the same to get to a level of industrialisation/GDP to take their countries out of poverty level, if we lead by example they will follow.
So, your practical solution is what?

Come on, Hugh, this is not a straight forward matter. Before you pump billions into a proposal, you need to make the case.

Given that even the scientists admit that they cannot be 100% sure that global warming is man-made, you really do need to keep an open mind.
