Ethiopia will cut carbon emissions by two-thirds by 2030. Really? This is news. From AFP:So, how is Ethiopia doing? Yes, there is an "emissions tracking" site. Ethiopia won't even come close to cutting emissions -- I've long forgotten why deforestation will lead to a reduction in CO2 emissions -- that may have been posted in error. Whatever.
Ethiopia has set targets to slash carbon emissions by two-thirds within the next 15 years, the most ambitious goal so far presented to an upcoming UN climate change conference in Paris.LOL. Ethiopia could cut its carbon emissions by two-thirds if it quit sending a) negotiators to Paris; and, b) marathon runners to Boston.
Population of Ethiopia: 100 million.
Ethiopia's major source of CO2 emissions, burning a) camel dung; b) trees. By 2030 the country will be completely deforested and that will account for at least a third of the reduction. Another third will be achieved by creative accounting.
