More evidence that Australians are not fully buying into the CO2 scam

AUSTRALIANS have put a price on what they're prepared to pay to help fight climate change, $10 extra a month on their electricity bill.

The 2008 Lowy Institute Poll reveals that Australians want action on climate change, but not if it costs jobs or hits them in the back pocket.

In a telephone poll of 1001 people conducted between July 12 and 28, a majority of 32 per cent favoured paying only $10 a month extra on their electricity bill to help solve climate change.

However, 21 per cent of respondents were not prepared to pay anything extra.
