Sadly, not many people realise Australia is a carbon sink.

Identify all mechanisms that characterise this carbon sink.

what proportion of Australia's natural tree cover has been cleared since the British invaded in 1788?

The Chief Scientist Australia did that for you. The figures are current to the last Government.

Well I wouldnt. What they do with it is there problem.

But I wouldnt rule it out once the world get serious about climate action as a way to price coal out of the electricity generation business.

So you're happy to see any saving of coal by reduction in coal usage through a price signal or cost here stuck on a boat and burnt overseas without that price signal or cost (or it does not matter to you what they do with it) and releasing CO2 into a global atmosphere. So have you always been a racist?

Then you're both hypocrites who support no real reduction in global burning of coal. So how can you be taken seriously when you you wring your hands about climate change because you obviously don't believe in it.
