This country keeps getting blasted for its performance reducing carbon emissions. Global warming is by far the biggest discussion item in so many arenas and I, for one, am getting really tired of hearing about it.
Scomo addressed the UN last week and spoke about what we have done so far and what is planned, but his claims have been ridiculed by environmental groups, the Opposition and any other organisation that believes we are dragging the chain.
In today's Sydney Daily Telegraph was a two page article debunking some of the global warming alarmist claims. I read the article fully and it sets out stats which indicate there is more happening here than I realised. Our renewable target of 30% appears to be very achievable, with rooftop installations in Australia exceeding the nearest nation, Germany, by three times and the current level being 22% of total power generated. Other policies are also having a positive effect, if the article is correct.
So , what's the truth? Is Oz pulling its weight?
