The NSW Government’s Environment Minister seems to be taking climate change seriously. He is calling for a Carbon Tax.

Minister Matt Kean has said that the state’s electricity system must be ‘decarbonised’. He is calling for a carbon tax to achieve this aspiration. He is supporting a new pro-renewable strategy to drive emissions down to achieve the government’s goal of nett zero emissions by 2050. Let us hope this does not become a nett zero omissions policy.

Move: CWWPA write to the Premier requesting details of Minister Kean’s proposed carbon tax.
