I don't believe that Australia should close down its coal-fired power stations and replace them with solar and wind power within a few years.

Australia generates a mere 1% of global greenhouse gases, such action will have only a symbolic effect at a disproportionate cost to our economy.

However, EVERYthing that the Greens advocate is not extreme or unreasonable.

I don't vote for them neither do I like their support for Gillard and her silly carbon tax.

BUT, in a rush to denounce SOME obviously extremist policies we overlook, at our peril, the sound sense that is displayed in others.

"Nothing too much," as the Oracle advised.
