Name the fourth largest consumer of coal in the world:
(A) Russia
(B) India
(C) Indonesia
(D) Australia
Answers
Answer:
(D) Australia
Explanation:
Australia has remained steady in fourth place, consistently hovering around the 500mt mark since 2014. It is also the ninth-largest consumer of coal in the world at 113mt.
The country may yet face a boost to its coal production, as recent victor of the “climate election” Scott Morrison is a well-known supporter of the coal industry, having once famously brought a lump of coal into the Australian parliament to accuse the Australian Labour Party of “coalophobia.”
However Australia’s use of coal was recently condemned by Prime Minister of Fiji Frank Bainimarama for being an “existential threat” to countries in the Pacific.
