The Federal Govt keeps proudly saying we're not going to sign Kyoto protocol *but* we're going to meet the target anyway. I downloaded Tracking to the Kyoto Target and saw an interesting breakdown. Australia banned land clearing in large areas of Queensland and counts this against increased CO2 emissions from other sources. So our CO2 emissions are about 38% above 1990 levels but through some clever calculations the govt reduces that to 9% because we're not clearing Queensland anymore.
