Emissions by OECD countries > Check the facts
The Treasurer Joe Hockey has described as “absolutely ridiculous” the idea that Australia is the highest greenhouse gas emitter in the OECD per capita.
Amongst OECD countries, Australia is the highest emitter of greenhouse gases per capita.
A good proportion of toxic emissions comes from Joe himself.
@Adam Herbst *likes*
Only thing more ridiculous than his comment is the fact that he is suppose to be the treasurer maybe going back to primary school to learn his maths would be less ridiculous
I wonder if Joe has planted a tree to carbon offset his cigar emissions.
It makes you wonder where these idiots live. They cannot possibly believe what they say in the media. They lied in their 2011 per election budget and the three independents (all conservative) saw the $7 billion hole and knew that an Abbott Government could not be trusted. How right they were.
You know a graph with no explanation of how the measurement was made is totally meaningless. What we really need to do is build lots of nuclear and hydro-electric like everyone else in the OECD. Although we do lack decent rivers so just heaps of nuclear then.
