Some comparison on Canada's 2030 carbon emissions goals with similar economies, from an
article in the BBC. The article is focused on Australia's goals, but points out how Canada is lagging even more.
Quote:
Figures from the Australian think tank, the Climate Institute show that Mr Abbott's new plan will cut emissions by 20% of 1990 levels by 2030. The US on the same basis will cut by 32%, the EU by 40% - and the UK will have reduced carbon dioxide by 66%.
The only countries to do less than Australia in this analysis, are Canada and New Zealand.
