The only fantasy world around here is the one in which some people try to convince others that there is NO problem.
I suspect Shorten will go for an emissions trading scheme, which will be equally as ineffective as a carbon tax for the simple reason that the idiots in opposition will attack it on principle, a hallmark of our degenerate political system.
If anything is going to happen it will be driven by individual actions and public opinion
driving politicians to make decisions based on Science and planning that extends beyond a 3 year election cycle, and that wont happen until people start dying big time.
