The world has it's own problems...like they're worried about ours.

The world must think we are complete morons.

Yes, they must. Especially the major countries we have agreements with, trade and otherwise.

You don't thik they are worried about our problems?

The Wall Street Journal has Australia on the front page this morning. They are predicting a global fallout from this decision.

This pretty much says it all (from the WSJ):

"There is no question there is fragile trust and ambition around the world," said John Connor, chief executive of Australia's Climate Institute think tank. "At international climate talks last year in Warsaw Japan, Canada and Australia were standouts in going backward, and so steps like this do matter."

the Jakarta Post published this story today, so other countries are thinking about climate change at this point

I love watching the left scream when it doesnt go their minority way.

Election 2013  LNP Seats won 90 seats Labor 55 seats   

Seat change LNP Increase 18 Labor Decrease17 

The LNP went in witha  policy of scrap the carbon tax and the Australian public voted for them and that.

So they have done what they got voted in to do by the MAJORITY of Australians

So the left can carry on all they like as no one is listening or cares.
