Australian Climate Madness Tax or No tax on election eve?

Does Labor want an ETS or not? Flip a coin - the answer you get will be about as reliable as asking Joolya, who also doesn't want to admit to wanting a carbon tax or ETS.

Australian Climate Madness

The Unbearable Nakedness of CLIMATE CHANGE

For an inordinately long time, one of the biggest troubles with Climatology has been its fixation with predicting the future, far before it will ever be able to understand the actual mechanisms of Earth’s climate in detail enough.
