"Payments are being made to people to not chop down forests that were never going to be chopped down, to grow forests that are already there, to grow forests in places that will never sustain permanent forests," Professor Macintosh told 7.30.

I cut ancient trees down without any consequence. I should tap into this rort by planting new trees and claim carbon credits on them.

Is the story that someone isn’t getting credits they are not entitled to (I get he’s disappointed) or the story from earlier this week that people are getting credits that they’re not entitled to? I guess both can be true but needs some explanation.

Does anyone believe Angus Taylor…he has form.

Farmer? Is he from the Anglo or Chinese community of Australians?

The whole carbon credits scheme world wide was a rort. Just another market for the elites to trade in for wealth theft. The greens and environmentalists were merely used as useful idiots to push for this.

Its what dont they rort

'I have great confidence in the strength of this program,'. Angus Taylor. Yet another multi million dollar rort. Tick, tick, tick, ICIC.
