Government Policy
Some components of the government's emissions reductions strategy have been:
- the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS) (which was a proposal for an emissions trading scheme that would have established a market in greenhouse gas permits);
- the Renewable Energy Target;
- "investment in renewable energy technologies and in the demonstration of carbon capture and storage";
- "action on energy efficiency."

“The Oregon [matter] and the annexation of Texas are now all- important to the security and future peace and prosperity of our union, and I hope there are a sufficient number of pure American democrats to carry into effect the annexation of Texas and [extension of] our laws over Oregon.
