Abstract

Why natural CO2 sequestration is not a virtue inAustralia?

Author(s): A.Parker

The paper discusses as top CO2 net sequestering countries like Australia should work to preserve their natural sinks more than comply with anachronistic accountancy exercises, and pay carbon taxes and carbon credits. While Australians keep voting against climate taxes, in 2016 they will have an election based on climate, where the Liberals are offering anindecent cut of the accountancy carbon dioxide emissions from 2005 of 26-28% by 2030, while the Labours have an even more fantastictarget of 45%. The doubt there is something else behind the science of global warming is strongest day after day.
