Not exact matches

Factor in the «carbon light» CO2 from coal seam gas projects in the East (and other LNG expansion in the north and west) and you're talking about Australia's fossil fuel emission exports equating to TWO Saudi Arabias by 2020, not one as I've been saying to many disbelieving ears.

The «climate pragmatists,» such as Victor, Stern, and myself, argue that the point of Australian climate policy is not to solve the global climate problem, or to solve the problem of emissions from international trade, but rather to achieve politically feasible forward progress on domestic climate policy that can help set the foundation for future global policy (which as you and Victor have pointed out is the only way to deal with leakage, including coal exports).

The emissions from the 721 million tons of coal in the South Porcupine is equivalent to the annual emissions of over 234 million passenger cars — that's nearly all the cars in the U.S..
