Are both these parties for or ahainst global warming?
I get the destict feeling that both parties are skeptical on global warming.

The Greens have a preference deal with the ALP WA which has to mean they
are for coal power. Just the other day they wanted solar only. The Greens as 
stupid
as that other party of the democrats which are thankfully no more.

Who on earth would anyone block uranium to China. The only way they'll get 
the greehouse
down to by going nuclear energy. Bob Carr former NSW Premier goes further 
and thinks
Australia should be powered by nuclear energy. His comments were in todays 
West Australian
News Paper.

Carpenter at odds with the South Aust premier and the NT as they have both 
been exporting uranium
through their own captial cities for the past 40 yeears and no problems what 
so ever.

Lead on the other hand is a problem, just ask the people of Esperance where 
another
cover up has taken place. Wildlife all dead which includes birds and fish. 
First they thought
bird flu wa in the area due to all the dead burds. Now it turns out lead 
poising in the area
thanks to the WA ALP Government who were to lax with all of this.

Carpenter is building two new coal power stations in collie with another 3 
on the drawing boards.
Are they that dumb and have no idea what is going on in the real world. If 
they want carbon credits
they can build coal if they want to and sell uranium to China who are rthe 
biggest emitters of
greenhouse on the planet but we West Aussies are the biggest per capita 
which is embarassing to say the least.

About time the Libs started gettig stuck into all this nonsense with the ALP 
making more pollution not less.
LIBS are greener than the ALP will ever wish to be an dthe greens are plainm 
stupid. Has anyone not told them that solar
panels cost 8 times more than coal. At this stage of their development they 
are not the answer, maybe in 50 years
they maybe but not now. Humans can't wait 50 years, hell we can't wait until 
2010, we must act now.

Most countries are going nuclear because its the only one that is zero 
emmissions.
What people forget about solar os that there a re not the panels or the 
materials available
for even 5% of the population in the world to go solar. The planet simply 
doesn't have
the materials to do that. Wher nuclear energy not that much ore is required 
for nuclear power
and the waste per million people is only 2.5KG with a half life of 20 years. 
These lsatest reactors
burn nuclear waste down by 10000 to 1. So 10000kg becomes only 1kg of waste. 
Has to be the way to go.

The Chinese are leading the way forward with pebble nuclear reactors which 
don't even need heavy water
unlike the old ones. Go to the ABC.net.au catalist web site on pebble 
nuclear reactors, all there for all to see
or do a google search.
