Gunns' pulp mill proposed for Northern Tasmania is a political football.
The Greenies have Gunns in their sights and say they can't seize the wood for the trees.
Their global warning is that Gunns' assault of the Earth is typical of the effluent society.
Meanwhile, Gunns have made alternative suggestions on how to discharge effluent and waste
products far out into Bass Strait. Their suggestions has fallen on dead ears.
"There are two no ways about it," argue the Greens. "Not much credibility, lots of gap."
"Bilge over troubled waters," say Gunns. "Though they see Bass Strait as a narrow divide, deep
waters still run, so there is no problem, no problem. We should be left to our own vices."
"Gunns are as slippery as an oil," complain the Greens.
"To the whinger go the spoils," respond Gunns, "but every crowd has a silver lining."
Apparently so, for the company's share price shot up 7.22%.
"This Government," says the Premier, "supports the development of value adding and
environmentally sustainable projects."
At the end of the day, it will come down to the survival of the fattest, but at this
point in time, it's all too close to call.
