  • UK Conservatives approve 50 per cent carbon cut
  • Australia's agrees to tiny five per cent cut by 2020
  • Countries taking climate change seriously - Combet

BRITAIN'S Tory Prime Minister David Cameron has approved a savage reduction in carbon pollution which makes the Australian target look puny.

The British coalition government today agreed to a 50 per cent cut in emissions by 2025, and the plan has the backing of the nation's industry leaders.

In Australia there is a target agreed to by Labor and the Liberals for a five by 2020, and so far there is no government plan to achieve this.

Further, it is not possible to directly compare the economies and energy systems of the two countries.

However, Climate Change Minister Greg Combet didn't miss the opportunity and said today the British decision was "further evidence that countries around the world take climate change seriously''.

"The UK has been participating in emissions trading for nearly a decade and - in contrast to what (Opposition Leader) Tony Abbott would have you believe - the sky has not fallen,'' said Mr Combet.

"In fact, the UK experience demonstrates that market mechanisms drive reductions in carbon pollution at least-cost while creating new economic opportunities and jobs.

"This point has been made by UK Prime Minister and Conservative Party member David Cameron, who said this new commitment will position the UK as a leading player in the global low-carbon economy, creating significant new industries and jobs'.''

The Australian Government is expected to underline the warm welcome to the targets given by companies, including the Confederation fo British Industry.

The CBI said there was the potential for massive investment in "decarbonisation of our energy supply'', possibly worth about A$3005 billion over the next 15 years.

Australia is a heavy coal user while Britain has been closing mines and moving to gas and nuclear power over the past 30 years.

Britain began its own emissions trading scheme in 2002 and in 2005 upgraded it to join the European Union scheme, meaning it has had a carbon market for nearly a decade.

Most of its carbon pollution abatement comes from what is known as the Green Deal, a combination of regulations and incentives to clean up energy supply and use and make them more effective.
