Thousands rally to support carbon price

ABC News

Thousands of people around the nation’s capital cities have rallied at ‘Say Yes’ campaigns in support of the Federal Government’s plan to set a price on carbon pollution. But CEO of the Climate Institute, John Conner, says the rallies are not a simple endorsement of the proposed carbon tax, because Australians also want policies for clean energy and energy efficiency. Details of the Government’s carbon pricing scheme will be finalised in early July before legislation is brought into Parliament in September and fixed carbon pricing is introduced in 2012.
