Pragmatic measures required for reducing emissions

Comments on Giles Parkinson “Head-in-the-sand economics”, 13/10/2009, http://www.businessspectator.com.au/bs.nsf/Article/CPRS-Greens-Steve-Fielding-Garnaut-Copenhagen-pd20091013-WRREF?OpenDocument&src=sph

Is the International Energy Agency god and are its projections convincing and why?

How can it represent the international community?

One has got to be realistic in the degree and the path of emissions reduction. Start with practical goals and send the correct signals to businesses and consumers. Then technical innovations and technological breakthroughs will follow and the next appropriate steps can be taken at that time.

Neither the race to bottom nor to the top is the right thing to do. Neither of them is a responsible way to resolving global warming issues.

More often than not, the Greens are environmental extremists and economic vandals. Is there any question about that?
