Reply to comment by orangutanoz in Australia can Slash Emissions 81% by 2030 using six Existing Technologies by DisasterousGiraffe

No it isn’t it is #13, we can do better but that is a blatant lie. Australia is just and I mean just ahead of the US and Canada.

I don’t know shit. My bad for taking the Guardian’s word for it.

Edit: I meant in terms of coal but I just had surgery and didn’t properly look up the static I was referring to until just now. Feeling much less goofy now thanks.

Definitely, that is only of a select group of countries. As per usual terrible cherry picked journalism.

That’s fine mate we can do better and are making massive strides but don’t need false stats. The state I live in is carbon neutral and even sales of new cars have been banned ACT. A small area admittedly but it’s a step in the right direction.
