I'm not stressed by the Carbon Tax. 5 cents a litre * 35 litres an hour is about $1.50 an hour. Not a big deal. Most years I fly about 120 hours, so say $200 a year. Happy to do my bit for the environment.
Until the banks start pumping the carbon price. Will you be happy to pay an extra $1000+ a year, ontop of a rising cost of everything else for the environment.

Remember the Carbon Tax is subsidised only for a few years. You are then paying full price with a price floor!!
