Australia's rapid population growth, especially via immigration. We already have severe water shortages in our main populated areas. And other pressures on our degraded agricultural and pastoral lands. Sydney & Melbourne with 6 to 8 million people? Ludicrous. Etc. Per capita emissions targets are an unacceptable let-out clause.<br /><br /><br /><br /> What of the ‘elephant in the room’? Australia’s rapid population growth, especially via immigration.

Does Dr Garnaut have any explanation as to why other planets in the solar system are warming up as well, I would like to hear his explanation to this phenomenon, could it be a cycle the solar system goes through, until Dr Garnaut answers this question I will take what he says as half a grain of salt.
