Carbon Tax (2011x7)

: 05, 2011

The debate has been loud and angry. Since the government announced the introduction of a fixed price on carbon pollution from July next year, public opinion has been divided and there have been protests across the country. As Australians keenly await more details, Insight tests public support, looking at the possible winners and losers of the carbon price scheme. We look at the likely effects on household budgets and electricity prices, the big businesses that are for and against the plan, and what motivates the No Carbon Tax groups.
