Where does population policy sit in relation climate policy?
Were supposed to have a 26 - 28 percent reduction in emissions over the period 2005 to 2020, whilst we already have a population increase of close to 5 million people during this period.

So a 26 - 28% reduction in emissions whilst we also see a 26 - 28% increase in population.
They seem to hoping to increase the target for 2030 to 50% reduction in emissions.

Meeting these Paris targets is probably impossible; (and probably designed that way)

It seems to me they want national consumers to fund the switch to renewables whilst the world still makes war over oil pipelines.
What a total scam.

- And when we fail to meet those targets they will say we need to do more. -
National carbon pricing would just be a step towards a global carbon tax;
With a global governing authority to rule over us and collect those funds.
Wait and see.

Armchair Critic,

When your toddler floods the bathroom, the first thing that you do is turn off the tap before you mop up. Our hypocritical government is calling on us to make sacrifices to reduce our carbon footprint while flooding the country with more and more people, who will also have big carbon footprints. Unless migrants are already rich or come from other rich countries, they are going to increase their carbon footprint on coming to Australia. Higher consumption is the name of the game. See

Even if the migrants themselves live frugally, their children will consume as much as anyone else.

Interesting development.
The UN is banning media organisations from attending the Morocco
conference to that is to sign up the Migration Compact, if that
organisation has shown a negative attitude to the compact.
The Canadian Immigration Minister Ahmed Hussen, has banned the Rebel
media organisation because of its attitude.

A clause in the Compact makes it offensive to criticise migration.
I believe Australia will not be signing up. Is Australia attending ?

Hi Divergence,
Your points on migrants increased carbon footprint in developed nations makes valid sense.
I definitely think I was right too, look at this:
-The news was already out, I was actually late to the party on global climate tax when I mentioned it in my previous comment.
http://www.sbs.com.au/news/climate-change-threat-has-never-been-worse-says-un-climate-chief
- "G20 leaders on Saturday agreed a final communique after their summit in Buenos Aires, declaring that the Paris Agreement was 'irreversible'."
- "National contributions must increase fivefold"

This is bad, really bad.
Global taxes... The New World Order has won, it's game over.

Hey Bazz,
It's the final stich-up to steal our own country from us.
Whether by migration or climate policies were stuffed, it's done.

Good on you, Alan, never give up. Yes, that damned spell-check or whatever. I suppose we all need to be vigilant about re-reading our posts before we actually post them. Some of mine have been ludicrously nonsensical, what with very thick fingers.

Actually some of us might benefit from re-reading, and re-phrasing, our posts, before they are sent, simply out of consideration for our victim-readers :)

Cheers,

Joe

It appears that the climate policy of our present govt is a 26%
reduction in cattle, transport and people.
That will be needed to reduce CO2 by 26%,
Which of your children will you cull.
Will the government provide guns and ammunition to each family ?

The Labour party wants to increase it to 45%.
Will you include your wife in that cull ?

No this is not from Nutnickname, it is just govt policy.
