By 2020? Our ‘developed’ country needs to pull its finger out! I just can’t see how that’s possible on our current trajectory with this Government.

Wow-seems to me Adani have an absolute requirement to self fund. Still bothers me though.

Good let them so long that it’s not coming out of my pocket like ParisRiots

How exactly? By extension of increasing interest rates on the public? Totally cynical when they do things like this. Details.

Who will really get the money?

To do what? Fight a changing climate that has been doing so for thousands of years ?

of course it should read, ‘to feather their own nest’

Virtue signalling, stop wasting money something that is non-existent and spend money on nuclear fusion

BS since when do banks give money away, won't happen

Australia should not contribute one cent to other countries payments. It has its own issues to resolve across the expanses of Australia

Too late. It's irreversible. Put the money on adaptation on infrastructure, food supply and distribution, etc.

😂😂

I’m now waiting for the “UN wants to take our sovereignty” and “world bank = bad” crew to emerge from their bunkers to criticize this

Keep all fossil fuels in the ground, plant trees now and ban all plastic for starters. Make sure you ring, email pester every politician

That confirms it a hoax, once those crooks get involved Inconvenient Science: NASA data show that global temperatures dropped sharply over the past two years. Not that you'd know it, since that wasn't deemed news. Does that make NASA a global warming denier?

Is it funding fossil fuels at the same time ?

How?

Can't trust Bankster terrorists!!

ALP dividend tax plan is 'big risk' for bank investorsA $750 million listed investment fund, says it will re-assess how it views bank shares because of the potential impact from the Opposition's plan. So self-funded retirees will SELL bank shares because of no cash-back from Franking Credits. And BUY what? They'll look for stable, income producing shares with good long term growth prospects. Like, maybe, just maybe, Australian Banks perhaps? BeatUp More vested interests stamping their little feet. beware the claims of rent seekers
