People need to stop shitting on Australia for its coal. Most is exported or used in making iron.

People never complain about oil producing nations but coal gets shit on all the time. Why the double standard? Yes the world need to move to clean energy, I'm all for that but even playing field here please.

Canada gets shit on for being an oil producing nation all the time.

And we tax the shit out of carbon, iirc, Canada only has lower carbon taxes than Sweden. So it isn't like we aren't trying to curb it... even though it is legit most of Canada's economy.

People are begging Saudi Arabia to pump more oil. Everyone cries if oil approaches $5 a gallon in the US. No one complains if oil price goes down. No one is building batteries in Canada to wean it off oil....
