Australians have spoken on climate. There's no excuse to look backwards, writes NSW Energy and Environment Minister Matt_KeanMP

should put an end to the pointless, backward-looking arguments about taking action on climate change. Eighty per cent of Australians think we are already experiencing the impact of climate change, and they are right.

Today, more than half the world’s gross domestic product is created in jurisdictions that have signed up to deliver net-zero emissions by 2050. Counting Japan’s commitment to that goal this week, 60 per cent of Australia’s two-way trade is now with countries that will soon be looking for cleaner alternatives to power their economies.

They are not doing this because they are climate alarmists. They are doing it because they are capitalists and want to ensure they remain a going concern as the world changes.

Matt_KeanMP What utter nonsense 😂😂😂😂

Matt_KeanMP Other than his coal and mining obsessed party policy who believes GladysBerejiklian as Queen KoalaKiller and land clearer can bluff her way through public scrutiny with bare faced lies. He's an environmental vandal and a charlatan

Matt_KeanMP ' Empty Vessels make the Most Noise'. Firstly, we have far more important matters to address at the current time than worrying about your hysterical nonsense with Climate Change. Secondly, 80% of Fires are started by Human Beings and/or Lightning... not Climate Change.

Matt_KeanMP ' You are WRONG ' ....Australians voted at the last Election for our current push to meet the Paris Target which we are doing. Renewables are unreliable, insufficient to meet our base load power and BLOODY EXPENSIVE. Take away the Subsidies and we shall see how things stand then.

Matt_KeanMP The 83% must have all been overseas when the last General Election was held!

Matt_KeanMP They spoke at the last federal election. Do you remember what they said

Matt_KeanMP This guy belongs in the greens loony bin

Matt_KeanMP Also forgotten are the workers in the mines being encouraged to push their unions to support coal and gas because of the danger to their livelihoods. What many of those workers fail to grasp is that they are endangered anyway. Our addiction to the cash from FF blinds us.

Matt_KeanMP At last, an environment minister that actually acts like one. Good on you, sir.

Matt_KeanMP This man continues to be a total liability to the so-called LiberalNSW he is dangerous, ill-informed, agenda-driven & a con artist. He should join Greens

Eight in ten Australians fear climate change will cause more bushfires and want a transition away from coalDespite the coronavirus pandemic dominating 2020, a new report has found a vast majority of Australians are still concerned about climate change and fossil fuels. climatehoax If we were so concerned about climate change we would vote for a party that acts on it. We’re too materialistic to think about issues which really matter. It’s ironic that actually looking after the environment, health and education would result in a higher standard of living. I’m concerned about this summer and how our PM will handle this one?

AFP concerned it doesn't have jurisdiction to investigate Doha airport searchesThe Australian Federal Police began interviewing women who were subjected to invasive searches at Doha airport less than two days after the incident, but it is yet to launch an official investigation over concerns it doesn't have jurisdiction Of course they have no jurisdiction in Doha. Any outrage over NSW police stripping pubescent girls? That is not good enough. Peter Dutton doesn’t let little things like jurisdiction or human rights get in his way.
