I get the requirement to do our bit, otherwise the whole agreement falls apart. But it’s not a one-size-fits-all problem. Australia’s power distribution needs are not as simply solved as those of a geographically much smaller country.Lets be truly fair dinkum, why should Aust phase them out. Aust footprint on CO2 is so small its irrelevant.
China is investing colossal money into Africa. When those countries start to prosper they’re going to demand their own CO2 exemptions, and the Robin Hoods at the UN will comply.
