But emissions policy can't just be about emissions and energy. It must also be about what direction to take the whole economy in for the next 25 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 22 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year, Australia has the highest per capita greenhouse gas emission footprint of all the western industrialised nations. This compares to 11 tonnes per capita in Germany and only eight tonnes in the UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book explains: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhy Australia's emissions are so high compared to those of its western peers. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow Australia easily beat its Kyoto Protocol round one emission target without needing to take any proactive measures on fossil fuel consumption or efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow, despite the Kyoto Protocol, Australia has expanded exports of coal and liquefied natural gas in the past 28 years, and is now one of the largest fossil fuel exporters in the world. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhy any emission reductions from reduced fossil fuel consumption in Australia will do nothing for global emissions if the coal and gas are simply exported to be burned elsewhere.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhy Australia won't be able to meet the Paris emission reduction target without dramatic changes to its energy policy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 23, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53146617545011,"sku":"9780987635808","price":33.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/J7NnSe5Mdf9780987635808.webp?v=1773868520","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-carbon-collision-course-australias-emissions-and-energy-policy-crisis-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
