The document analyzes trends in the Queensland coal industry in Australia. It notes that the carbon offset from planting 1 million trees or changing light bulbs would be negated by emissions from the Queensland coal industry in under 7 hours and 32 hours respectively. It also discusses the industry's large contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, projected to be 848 million tonnes annually by 2025, and the Queensland government's plans to increase royalties and reliance on coal revenues. The coal industry is a major economic driver for Queensland but also a significant source of emissions.
