Abstract: When the Australian government foreshadowed a carbon price, Australian modellers were ready. This paper outlines the history of carbon pricing policy to date in Australia and describes peer-reviewed, published studies of carbon pricing undertaken from 2007. These studies are then reviewed against some critiques of aspects of climate change modelling; a general critique of macroeconomic modelling emerging since the Global Financial Crises; and two years of real world operation of an Australian carbon tax.
