  Juiced Up Greenies Want To Ban LCD & Plasma TVs

By David Richards | Wednesday | 10/10/2007

COMMENT: Claims that current plasma TV models would be banned from sale in Australia as early as October next year are pure political garbage and will not happen.

A little known consulting firm Digital CEnergy which has floated the idea to the Federal Government's Greenhouse Office appears to be totally out of sync with the CE industry.

The idea to ban LCD and Plasma TVs by October next year shows that the Federal Government is dealing with an organisation that is so far out of touch with reality that one has to question the sanity of the whole proposal.

Consumer sentiment on the issue is already being expressed as one reader of the Sydney Morning Herald wrote: "This is the same crap that always rises its head in this 'democratic' country. Get a life; you cannot regulate serious matters in Australia so how on earth do you propose to regulate a minor issue like this?
