AUSTRALIA-CLIMATE-WARMING-UN-COP21-COAL

To go with Climate-warming-UN-COP21-Australia-coal,FEATURE by Madeleine Coorey A photo taken on November 18, 2015, shows part of the coal operations at the Port of Newcastle as Australia plans to dramatically ramp up coal exports -- which is the nation's second most valuable export -- to boost economic growth over the next decade despite climate change activists arguing new planned mines are "carbon bombs" incompatible with limiting temperature rises. As the world meets for climate change at talks in Paris, environmentalists say hopes of curbing global warming to less than two degrees Celsius (3.6 Farenheit) are incompatible with Australia's coal expansion plans.
