      Australia is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases per capita.

      This is shocking/
      Australia is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases per capita. That's bad news for the environment and is part of the impetus for the Gillard government's price on carbon to be introduced in July.
      Those opposing the carbon tax point to the relative inaction of the big polluters, countries like the USA, China and India. But the sad reality is that Australia is playing catch up with many other G20 countries.

      They should double the cost of petrol that should stop those Aussies from driving those gas guzzling air polluting 4x4s, lol.

      Australia is the developed world's worst per-capita greenhouse gas emitter because of its heavy reliance on cheap coal for power generation. Emissions are likely to rise in the booming economy without a carbon tax, the government says.

      That's a statistic based on there not being very many of them compared to other industrialised nations, and the fact that the Yanks the Chinese have said it's not them honest.
      The United Nations, Governments and policy makers will manipulate statistics to support their latest way of taxing people and then indoctrinate the gullible with it.
