Sustainable Dev’s work in The Australian and ABC Online
by Tim Wilson, September 2, 2010
Sustainable Development’s work has been attracting attention. This week it has been mentioned in The Australian in an excellent piece by well-respected economist, Michael Stutchbury who looks at the cost and validity of ‘green’ policies in election campaigns. Similarly, we had our own piece looking at the impact of ‘green’ policies on the cost-of-living following the Australian election that was published on ABC’s The Drum.

You sometimes come up with really nice and interesting ideas (no propaganda and b.s) as has been demonstrated via your media gigs…please keep doing this and fill the void of the rich hippies who have a moral fibre as well.We need LEADERS to replace that gap, it’s up TO YOU KIDDO if you want that gig….what do you think… are you up to it??

Dear Tim,

The parties have a very dodgy pre-selection process that’s decided by a handful of people only…..then it goes to the electorate.
This election… reforms need to be made at all levels and maybe then we can get democracy which has been lacking for years in our two party system.
The PEOPLE have won at this election and there are clearly no winners in a shallow and non-policy campaign.
Sad and tragic for the political class i would think Tim…how would you negotiate when we have a parliament like this by using your “mask” of fear or ideology?
( No gay pun intended)
We live in a society not economy and your love affair with Thatcher would indicate that you would be inclined to be nasty..so sorry mate the media gigs don’t do justice to what i.p.a sets out to achieve but a sign of insecurity on it’s behalf by selling a very bad brand of politics.
Nice guy on t.v and good to look at Tim!!

A free marketeer like yourself should recognise the benefit of a situation in which individuals acting out of self-interest produce a social benefit
independents Timbo!!!!!
With that there are two major issues the greens need to address.
The first is the transition to including carbon in the economic system. The second is to work out how to transit out of the failed free market theory and move to a fairer and more sustainable economic system with a proper balance between regulation and free enterprise.
Gillard govt. Greens sharing power in both houses. A process to put a price on pollution. Melbourne: by voting Greens, you’ve done well!
