He is not a climate scientist. He's not an applied physicist. He is, apparently, not even an informed layman, and his only critique is about carbon taxes. He has no projections beyond the year 2100 (so that means that he has no even considered the question of the effects of the BAU scenario as far, you know, sustainability goes beyond that, because we all know that after 2100 a magical fairy with technological powers will find the solution to all of this).
This guy's a clown, he freely mixes political leanings with subious science of people with no credentials on the topic, and it honestly looks like another astroturfing effort, no less in the nation of Australia, known for its massive coal lobby which has been pushing hard for the opposition of a carbon tax.
So I'll keep listening to the top climate scientists for advice instead of some paid shill with no understanding in either economy nor climate not environmental sciences.
