Record emissions keep Australia on path to missing Paris target
by Lisa Cox from on (#3SYMD)
Annual carbon emissions, excluding unreliable data, higher than ever, report says
Australia's emissions over the past year were again the highest on record when unreliable data from land use and forestry sectors are excluded, according to new data from NDEVR Environmental.
If the country's greenhouse gas emissions continue on their current trajectory, Australia will miss its Paris target by a billion tonnes of CO2, which is equal to about two years of Australia's entire national emissions.
