SINCE 2005...
Australia has REDUCED its carbon emissions by 14%.
Canada has reduced its by 2%.
New Zealand has INCREASED its by 4%.
Source...Sky News.
The EU is to introduce green taxes on imports...from some countries, including Australia.
China is exempt ...because it's a "developing nation"....reportedly.
LOL
Stuff the EU.
Australia should immediately whack a "stuff you" import tax on every single item imported from the EU.
Including but not limited to...EU cars, EU white/electrical goods, the spray 'light whipped cream" made in Belgium I just discovered in my fridge, tomatoes from Italy, seafood from Norway...etc etc etc.
Australia is obviously trying a lot harder than Canada, NZ and other critics to reduce its carbon emissions.
"Prime MInister Scott Morrison to meet with US Climate Envoy".
Good.
Maybe US Climate Envoy might have suggestions as to how Australia could reduce its carbon emissions to zero by 2050 and not go broke, keep the lights on and keep industry, and the economy strong.
