Sydney, July 21 (RHC)-- Australia has repealed laws aimed at curbing global warming by charging corporations for carbon emissions. The repeal of the carbon tax was a key promise of right-wing Liberal Party Prime Minister Tony Abbott.

Critics say Australia has now become the first country in the world to undo progress on climate change. During the first year the tax was in place, emissions dropped by their largest amount in more than two decades. Last year was Australia’s hottest year on record.
