Australia has fudged it's CO2 position and the rest of the world knows it:
"In the 2020 edition of the Sustainable Development Report, Australia’s score for “climate action” saw it rank second last, sitting 176th of 177 countries assessed, with oil and gas heavy Brunei the only country that received a worse score."
Morrison is mealy mouthed, and trust his followers will blindly believe him.The bottom line here is that actions resolve a problem, not procrastination and hope.
All the necessary technology is in place to combat change, and it just needs governments to enact the policies which get them entrenched.
Morrison keeps trotting out a line about taxes and jobs which is proven false.
Again, the world knows that adopting new green technologies is where significant job creation occurs. But not Morrison.
All these years in government and the coalition has had to rely on Gillard's ARENA and CEFC for all its runs on innovation and investment in renewables - agencies which they tried to get rid off.

Hard to get more recent data, but this list of top CO2 emitting nations from 2018 sees Australia worse than the UK, Poland, France and Italy:
In fact we are equal with Turkey which has over three times Australia's population.
It doesn't matter where you look for data because everywhere shows Australia to be a very poor example to the rest of the world.
You will notice that Morrison and his team will never stump up charts like these because they are damning.

Well the next election is obviously already decided.
I hope you guys are right.
Your obviously going to bounce off each other well.
I personally think it isnt going to be as easy as you are portraying it.

Americans elected Trump.
Australians elected Morrison.
There is no telling how stupid we are, collectively.
The only thing Im portraying is a total incompetent government and how the electorate sees that I have no idea.
Feel free to put some positive spin on it like your leader...after all you voted for the idiots
Tell your team leader not to put Shorten in the drivers seat. Guy was unelectable. Reminded me of that gollum from lord of the rings.
I wouldn't be tooting my own horn on the issue of 'collective stupidity' while being firmly of a certain political lean.
I would of thought you would be a bit old for lord of the rings but it does solve the puzzle.
And I'm guessing you enjoyed the xxx rated version.

I vote for local independent candidates with smart policies if they are on the ticket, then Greens.
My comments at ASF relate to what I see as positive for the country, and I don't just sit back and slag. I actually say why some ideas or policies are bad.
JobSeeker was excellent - it stimulated consumption from hundreds of thousands previously on the dole, and didn't line anyone's pockets.
JobKeeper was a good idea but an inept policy. By way of example Sims Limited, which I just posted on, is returning $7.5 million it does not need. It's just one of the many thousands companies that got money but remained profitable.
The economy is roaring along with little to no covid infection.
Jobkeeper was policy on the fly that saved millions of small, medium and large businesses and workers jobs. Some would say it "wasn't enough" others say "to much". They had little time to implement it and work out the kinks. This was policy under duress and it was the right choice.
Make no mistake I won't be voting libs again either. But a lot of arguments here are one eyed.

Our economy has been propped up by tens of billions of dollars of unproductive money. You call that a right choice!
That debt burden will hang over us for a generation, and we have nothing to show for it.
The States' role in covid mitigation has often been at odds with the feds who have shown their incompetence time and again.
In terms of what's one eyed here, it's the baseless opinions that fly.

Funny stuff with a lot of truths. I don't have a problem with billionaires per se. It's when they begin to decide that they should mould the world into something they decide is acceptable.lol read this mo
It's all the greedy little munts that want a piece of that action. And lets face it, a lot of them are in government.
As for culture wars: 4chan would expressly push the most ridiculous of lefty trends to put the greater population off. Problem was that lefties embraced the idiocy.
I make no secret libs are a bunch of shtpots. But I'll never understand how Labor supporters keep the faith.

I think that goes for most extremes.
Billionaires are one.
The extremes of the political spectrum, both the "Left" and the "Right" are another group that tends to want to do that, they want everyone to do as they say.
Various other single issue lobbyists also tend to end up like that, demanding that everyone do as they see fit and failing to grasp that most don't see their objective as desirable.
