If international climate negotiations are locked in a serious conflict between the affluent global North versus ‘developing’ South, Australian climate policy is deadlocked by a superficial political contest between political Right and Left. Moreover, in Australia ‘economic solutions’ like taxes or trading are being proffered for ‘ecological problems’! This can achieve little on the ground – since economics and ecology deal with two different orders of reality. A higher level of public eco-literacy will be critical for sound climate policy. continue… »
