27/02/2009 - Plans to start emissions trading next year are in trouble after a powerful business group withdrew its support.
The Australian Industry Group (Ai Group) has called for the scheme to be delayed until 2012 because of the economic crisis.
This caps off a horror stretch for the federal government's scheme.
Industry groups, farmers and green groups are all ramping up their opposition to the scheme.
In parliament, the opposition and the Greens have sharpened their criticism of the scheme, raising the possibility it won't get through the Senate.
