Put carbon tax on babies: academic While carbon trading will no doubt play a key role in curbing emissions, environmental scientists say the politically sensitive issue of population growth also needs to be given more consideration in the climate change debate. Now a radical proposal to reduce population growth has been published in the Medical Journal of Australia a carbon tax on babies. The parents of any baby born today in Australia will receive a Federal Government bonus of $4,187. In July next year, that'll go up to $5,000. It's a controversial policy but the argument that it is environmentally unfriendly hasn't often been raised. Now though writing in the Medical Journal of Australia Barry Walters, an associate professor of obstetric medicine at the University of Western Australia, is making that case. Dr Walters says every family choosing to have more than a defined number of children should be charged a carbon tax. He goes on to argue that those purchasing condoms or undergoing sterilisation procedures should be awarded carbon credits. (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) | |||
