Position on aspects of global warming

The Climate Sceptic Party believe that the theory of global warming^[3] has been created from "cherry picked" evidence, hypothetical modeling and "junk science". They advocate "real and common sense" ways to clean the environment and reduce pollutants amongst many other statements of their beliefs ^[4].

The party's website lists a number of Australian scientists who are sceptics of anthropogenic climate change, including Michael Crichton, Robert M. Carter and Prof. Ian Plimer ^[5]

Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme

The Climate Sceptic Party's policy on the Rudd government's proposed emissions trading scheme, the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), is that the CPRS will result in Australian industry being at a competitive disadvantage, leading to rising prices; corruption and fraud; and the curtailing of human freedoms ^[6]

Actions

On 13th July 2009, approximately 30 members of the Climate Sceptic Party and supporters arrived at the venue where climate change advocate, Al Gore, was speaking in Melbourne, to hand out leaflets for those attending, with questions to ask Al Gore during his speech. Some wore t-shirts bearing the party's slogan: "Carbon Really Ain't Pollution - CRAP". ^[7].
