Australia’s Eastern States – reduced greenhouse gas emission last summer
Posted: 1 September, 2010 • Category: News • Tags: Climate Change, Energy, Renewable Energy • Comments(0)
A press release by The Climate Group advises that Australia’s 4 Eastern states reduced greenhouse gas emissions by just over 1.2 million tonnes emitted from energy compared to last summer. This is a significant reduction considering that it was one of the hottest summers on record with temperatures reaching 55 degrees. The fall in emissions was driven by a reduction in emissions from coal-fired electricity generation and a fall in emissions from the use of natural gas.
