"Green" subsidies.

Seems to be a topic taxing some here.



Twenty five times more is spent subsidising fossil fuels compared with renewables.

Where does it say that?

Not here

"IEA this year estimated that fossil fuel subsidies in 2011 reached approximately $523 billion for developing and emerging economies alone.

By way of comparison, the same study estimated global renewables subsidies of $88 billion, including $20-22 billion for biofuels."

And that is not about developed nations like ours.

by way of tax breaks rather than subisdies in developed coountroes.

Its just more green spin.
