Australia drought, fire and heat wave

Australia isn't as environmentally "friendly" as it often likes to portray. I am curious if the Aussies can learn a thing or 2 from China's decades-long tree-planting program to reclaim desert.

 

Raging bushfires expose multiple governance woes of Australia

Australia takes only 0.3 percent of the world population, but its greenhouse gas emission level is as high as 1.3 percent, making it one of the world's biggest emitters. Australia's target of carbon reduction has been criticized as too low and the government has not been too willing to take concrete steps. In addition to being the world's fourth largest producer of coal, Australia is also a major exporter of fossil fuels, causing emission rise not only in the country, but in the export destinations as well. The newly endorsed Adani Carmichael coal mine project in Queensland has gone ahead in spite of widespread opposition in the country.

You said Turn out to be more expensive than photovoltic. See your own post above.

No one is saying its a commercial success.....a fact

Having been to OZ land a couple times before, I can say I wouldn't back so soon unless AU$1 < SG$0.80

Nothing much left and changes is like snail-speed.

Within 5 min, the "documentary" keep repeating 'biggest here, biggest there". yet the narrator didn't even dare to say who is OZ's biggest iron ore customer over the last decade or more. Ha! 

Yet another propaganda parrot media from Australia that always fail to give full picture... [flowerface]

Who does Australia export iron ore to?
