The Australian government has released details of the proposed Australian emissions trading scheme, The Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme. 

The reduction targets are between 5% – %15 by 2020 over 2000 emission levels, with a 60% reduction by 2050.  It should be noted however, that because the Australian population is projected to grow strongly that the reductions per capita are 34% – %41 over 1990 levels.  New technology will play a critical role in meeting the per capita targets.
