Then again, these guys faked the moon landing.
Hottest years does not equal a trend. I think you will find it is generally agreed that there's been a pause for nearly 20 years - except for NASA's Hansen and the try hard warmies.

Getting back to the OP, I really don't mind how people get their electricity, but

don't plead ignorance or deny that other people aren't paying for your decision
don't carry on about all the other subsidies that other people/industries get and;
don't harp on about how you're doing it to save the planet

economic benefit, yep, I would agree there lots of benefit for panel manufacturers in China, Germany and USA, however I'm not so sure how much economic benefit there is to Australia
