Thank you, Mr President. Is it a fact that China is responsible for 23 per cent and the United States for 20 per cent of global carbon dioxide emissions? What guarantee can the government give Australia, which produces about one per cent of global carbon dioxide emissions, that under its carbon tax production will not simply transfer internationally for no environmental gain?
