Australia's emissions reduction targets set in February Least

The Australian Government is expected to set emission reduction targets GHG Australia in the latest month of February 2020, in accordance with the agreement resulting in Copenhagen.

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has arrived back in Australia after marathon negotiations that produced the political agreement between the major countries of the world.

Countries are developing such as China, India, Indonesia and Brazil has promised to declare how they will reduce emissions, while developed countries such as Australia should set emission reduction targets before the deadline in February.

Copenhagen Agreement has been criticized for being too light and not binding enough.

However, the Australian Climate Change Minister, Penny Wong, said, was never expected to be produced more than a political consensus for the moment, and that is important is to continue moving forward on this issue.

The Australian Government will also begin to take efforts for the third time that the parliament pass emissions trading scheme early next year.

But the opposition leader, Tony Abbott, says disappointed with the results of this Copenhagen Summit and said the results showed that the steps that Prime Minister Rudd in a hurry to pass the emissions trading scheme before the Copenhagen summit is not wise.

Said Abbott, Australia's opposition coalition has taken the right step by not passing legislation on emissions tax before knowing what to do other countries in the world.

Meanwhile, Professor Ross Garnaut, a former government adviser on the subject of Climate Change, said Australia's position at a meeting in Copenhagen that can be more powerful if the parliament had passed the emissions trading scheme.

But, he said, although it helps, Australia's position would not be "decisive" for it.
