    Actually, it does matter what Australia does to reduce GHG and limit the amount of Global heating we endure.

    Here is the impact of emissions on bush fires:

    Australia is already a world-leader in impacting global climate agreements to increase emissions. During Kyoto, Australia successfully watered down the agreements, and even had its own clause created, which other countries adopted. This keeps happening.

    Australia's domestic and exported emissions, Australia is responsible for ~5% of total human-caused emissions.

    But, Australia could also export clean energy and power (undersea cables) and could lead and influence other governments by demonstrating the immediate benefits of decarbonisation.

    This is what we are advocating for, because the science doesn't say "Australia can do nothing, it's all good", the science says a global effort is the only way to lessen these impacts.
