MP Nick Smith made an outlandish statement that the ETS will save us 19 million tonnes of Carbon in 3 years! How?
What about the figures, the calculations, the maths, the chemistry, the logic, the philosophy to support this ridiculous statement?
Are we supposed to be impressed?
Most CO2 is generated in the country's urban, industrial areas. The forests are 200-300 km away from these areas. Carbon Dioxide is heavier than air. How does the CO2 get to the forests to be absorbed?
Politicians and their so-called experts may be easily persuaded but that doesn't mean the rest of us
are stupid!
