Lets mix it up a bit,
Global warming is a myth, "the biggest scam of modern times” global warming is a multibillion-dollar worldwide industry created by fanatically anti-industrial environmentalists supported by scientists peddling scare stories to chase funding and propped up by complicit politicians and the media.
The fact is that CO2 has no proven link to global temperatures ... solar activity is far more likely to be the culprit

What ****es me off, is the duplicity. I don't doubt human kind have ****ed the planet, be it CFC co2 lead DDT etc, plus nature has put her finger in it, Krakatoa, sun spots, methane hot spots etc etc.
But apart from those mongrel Chinese, no one addresses the root cause, too many people. Rather we subsidize people to have more kids plus programs like IVF etc etc. but very little into family planning, contraception etc.
I suppose that's the beauty of a democracy, we have the right to be stupid.
That's what things like Malaria, Ebola, japenese encyphilitis, polio etc is forQuote:

This is happening right now with home solar. Rebates have dropped, power companies have been increasing charges to compensate and now want to increase more and charge a connection fee regardless of whether you are hooked up to the network or not a lot like they have done with sewerage and water infrastructure. You may not use it but still have to pay a fee just for it to be available.
We could easily make coal fired power stations redundant quickly if we really wanted to, though there would be initial infrastructure costs.
In summary you seem to be agreeing wiith the proposition that the governments are reducing the SUBSIDIES.
It was openly said in the beginning of the obscene subsidies for solar that the government wanted home solar and that everyone else had to pay for it.
So the poorest people eg renters, pensioners, unemployed have paid billions to the rich middle class with their own homes for them to install solar.
Great social policy.

FYI. Silex is a listed company (SLX). So anyone including people on this forum who believe the this type of power is the way of the future are free to invest in it.Quote:

And as per the ASX announcement: "Solar Systems is currently exploring alternatives to further develop the Mildura site on a smaller scale"
My suggestion: open a zoo for their white elephant and charge people for viewings! HA kidding.
I'm not against alternatives, viable alternatives. Subsidies NO, tax concession/offsets YES. Handing government money out is inefficient. Making the companies strive for a profit but give them tax concessions is my preferred option.
Some people keep ignoring the charity money for the "other side of the coin"
