wendoureeswans Who is this fraudulent apology for an 'Environment Minister' ?

And it will make zero impact on the environment

Well it's not like the world is going to end

pteModil Who thought it was a good idea to put a Environmental skeptic in-charge of the environment portfolio? Bit like the rest of LNP M.P's Portfolios. A lot of them have conflict of interest issues or relatives in the connected industry.

Thanks Tony Abbott

The greening of the planet will continue, good news

Like the rest of the world, except for the U.S. which isn't signed to the Paris Agreement

And!

When China & India are on board with reducing emissions then perhaps its far to say the rest of the world will follow

............. pants on fire!!

marxdeane Shameful & reckless. auspol

Good news!

Qldaah What happened to the canter?

We're a small country. Let the most populated countries DO THEIR DUTY FIRST. Then we'll follow. What this population can do is a drop in the ocean compared to CHina and India.

drkerrynphelps It's easy to blame the rest of the world but if we do nothing to reduce impacts of climate change we have no moral leverage to persuade others to do so. The Coalition don't matter anymore. Their lies will continue until they lose power. There is no choice, dump the Coalition.

TheBigShip Here was me thinking that climate change was a physics problem. Seems it's just about accounting. Phew.

Hmmm, now the age is turning on the libs. They know the game is over.

ItsBouquet Is that a reverse canter ScottMorrisonMP ? Is your policy to increase emissions? emissions auspol

drkerrynphelps Oh bugger!

I am shocked

She must sit at home with the lights off and ride a horse to work

davrosz Blame the LNP for this.

Can anyone explain why Australia’s emission targets are so important if the following video is correct

she must be good at spinning fairy tales as long as she is getting ministerial pay n sitting pretty n does nothing

No big deal

Would this one know....🤔🤡🤡

davrosz Priceless!!

davrosz No one believes what the LNP say now. Sad isn’t it?

This woman has no idea I reckon debate with simonahac Mark_Butler_MP they leave in her the gates , then she blamed the starter for not being fair. The question is does she know the meaning of remission , what’s carbon , that steam from power stations what’s in it no idea shame

And I have no clue what you are talking about. Can I have a UN appointment?

Such a load of shit. It was never going to happen. Get a grip to those who thought this was ever going to happen. The emissions will never subside.

MickKime 🎶Let me ask you one question Is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness Do you think that it could?🎶

Who cares

Every country that tries to meet them will be living caves...your point?

Good Best news I’ve heard today

...and how has Melissa 'Invisible Enviro MP' Price responded? Melissa4Durack

How much will we lower the world's emissions even if we MEET the target? NEAR ZERO. And what is the cost to the economy?

Good. The targets are a steaming pile of UN garbage designed only to not be met but to trigger huge financial penalties used to shift wealth to poorer countries. The UN are hell bent on global socialism

how is this news...irrelevant paper...who gives a f...

What a bunch of short sighted fools Bring on Labor 2019

Good. It wouldn’t make a difference anyway other than inflate our foreign debt to China.

How are China's emissions going? On target?

So what?

Along with everyone else.

It won't matter if we miss the target, it was a bullshit target anyway. Even our current chief scientist said our C02 reduction won't make a significant difference. Now 'experts' say we are entering a cooling phase. Climate has always changed.

How much will we lover the world's emissions even if we MEET the target? NEAR ZERO. And what is the cost to the economy?

Australia unlikely to meet Paris 2030 emissions targetNew Federal Government data shows there's been a decline in emissions in the electricity sector, largely thanks to higher-than-expected investment in renewable energy. But overall, the figures show Australia is likely to fall short of the target it has set. AlexHBeech China has been making all of our solar panels, so that has pushed up the emissions in their country... Apparently Solar Panels take a lot of energy to make, and may not produce the same amount of energy in their lifetime as was required to produce them... AlexHBeech Yet another failure to the part of the LNP or, as their current leader would have it, The Muppet Party. Hopefully the next Federal Government will see them as a minor party and someone with the strength to lead as PM. AlexHBeech The abc obviously does not respect Christmas. We Australians believe that we can all be better neighbors to each other We believe Christmas provides a wonderful opportunity to bind friendships The spirit of Christmas is a reminder of our responsibilities as Australians.
