The government approaches the climate change challenge with an open mind, and the mandatory renewable energy target has been particularly successful. We are on track to meet our Kyoto target and are committed to doing so. We are investigating emissions trading, just as we have investigated the options for nuclear power. All measures which are capable of combating climate change and of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and which do so in a manner that protects and preserves our standard of living, will always be under consideration.
