The ABC notices the anti-carbon tax rage « JoNova

JOHN STEWART: Most of the websites promoting the anti-carbon tax rally in Canberra also contain links to climate change sceptics. There are sceptics T-shirts and caps for sale.

The online activist group GetUp is planning to stage counter-demonstrations.

SIMON SHEIKH, GETUP NATIONAL DIRECTOR: What they're calling for is driven by climate denialism. They do not believe in the basic science of global warming. They're anti-progress. But if you look on their websites, they're also anti-Islam, they're anti-refugees. These are people who fundamentally don't support Australia moving forward.
