"Professor Bob Carter identifies 10 dishonest slogans in the global warming debate:
1. We must address carbon (sic) pollution (sic) by introducing a carbon (sic) tax.
2. We need to link much more closely with the climate emergency.
3. Putting a price on carbon (sic) will punish the big polluters (sic).
4. Putting a price on carbon (sic) is the right thing to do; it’s in our nation’s interest.
5. Putting a price on carbon (sic) will result in lower carbon dioxide emissions.
6. We must catch up with the rest of the world, who are already taxing carbon dioxide emissions.
7. Australia should show leadership, by setting an example that other countries will follow.
8. We must act, and the earlier we act on climate change the less painful it will be.
9. The cost of action on carbon (sic) pollution (sic) is less than the cost of inaction.
10. There is no do-nothing option in tackling climate change.
Now read on as Professor Carter treats each of these slogans with a strong dose of truth. "
