Vapour pours from a steel mill chimney in the industrial town of Port Kembla, about 80 km (50 miles) south of Sydney July 7, 2011. Australia unveiled plans on July 10, 2011 to slap a carbon tax of A$23 a tonne on its 500 worst polluters from 2012, sweetened by tax cuts for voters fearing higher power bills, and paved the way to adopt the largest emissions-trading scheme outside Europe.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing sight of vapour billowing out from a steel mill chimney in Port Kembla, an industrial town located about 80 km south of Sydney. Taken on July 7,2011, by renowned photographer Tim Wimborne for Reuters Images, this image showcases the raw power and impact of heavy industry on the environment. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Australia's ambitious plans to combat pollution. Just three days after this picture was taken, Australia announced its intention to implement a carbon tax on its worst polluters starting in 2012. The tax would amount to A$23 per tonne and be accompanied by tax cuts for citizens concerned about rising energy costs. Beyond its political significance, this image also highlights the juxtaposition between urban development and nature. The towering electricity pylon stands tall against the backdrop of an expansive sky while steam engulfs the surrounding area. It is a testament to humanity's ability to harness energy but also raises questions about our responsibility towards preserving the environment. With no people present in the frame, viewers are left solely with their thoughts and emotions when confronted with this powerful scene. As we contemplate climate change and its consequences, this photograph encourages us to reflect upon our own role in shaping our planet's future.
