| Climate Change Authority chairman, Bernie Fraser. |
A conversation of
critical importance to the welfare of all Australians has become
dangerously skewed since the election of the Tony Abbott-led coalition
government.
Driven by science-denying ideologies, the present federal government
has busied itself dismantling Australia’s climate change mitigation
infrastructure, while at the same time taking the leash off vocal climate
skeptics.
Former Sunday Age editor, Gay Alcorn, writing in a piece
headed: “Climate change bad guys apply heat to Labor”, says that while the
skeptics have free reign on climate change, Labor is disturbingly quiet.
Ms Alcorn quoted the Climate Change Authority chairman, Mr Bernie
Fraser, who said: “People in positions of influence in industry associations or
companies or in the government and the opposition who in some cases say they
believe the science, but don’t act as if they do”.
