Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: "In November 2010, Professor Ross Garnaut was commissioned by the Australian Government to provide an update of his 2008 Climate Change Review. ...This review ... was to consider developments in climate change mitigation, climate change science, proposals to develop a carbon price in Australia, trends in domestic and international emissions, changes in low emission technology, the potential for abatement within the land sector and developments in the Australian electricity market. A series of papers related to the above are being released during the period November 2010 to March 2011 with the final report due May 2011. The Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research ... received a request from the Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency (DCCEE) to provide input to this process.
