This seemed like a grand claim, even when you consider that cutting our emissions by 5% below 2000 levels by 2020 is a (very) small target. So, how was this possible?<br /><br />Is this cheating?<br /><br />Some countries think so....<br /><br />Australia, on the other hand, is relying desperately on these loophole credits. If Australia were to follow suit we would actually be on track to undershoot our (very small) target by a whopping 100 million tonnes.</i> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462488453822156883.post-59015365609746134632015-12-10T21:06:19.417+11:002015-12-10T21:06:19.417+11:00Possibly it's a clever move by Bolt.

Perhaps he sees the way things are going and this gives him a chance to be 'converted' - 'I was a denialist, and then I saw the light' (not 'I was an opportunist who wrote whatever my paymaster wanted, until it became unfeasible, when I switched sides')Val Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04022522407838661280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462488453822156883.post-68386071723911913282015-12-10T16:33:58.694+11:002015-12-10T16:33:58.694+11:00Hi Dorothy,

Who can tell with the clever white contrarians? - that he has been offered a job with the ABC at this time and what a disappointment to his followers that he has chosen to work with the biased ABC 'greenfilth left' rather than keep them up to date with his climate science insights. <br /><br />One wonders how the ABC can afford him.<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
