So happy you found a reliable source.
Of course, no mention of how much people have to spend, to "save" all that money on their bills.
Or, how much the rest of the bills have to rise, to compensate for the reduction of income from homes with Solar. ( who still need topping up from the grid and all of the infrastructure to enable that ).
And of course, no mention that Australia is exporting it's CO2 instead of producing it domestically.
So what the fuck? Burn it in China, and it doesn't count???? What bollocks. There's only one atmosphere.
