Greens MP Adam Bandt put forward a motion to declare a climate emergency on Tuesday but it was defeated in the House of Representatives, just hours after a failed hot air balloon attempt during a climate protest.

A political stunt by The Greens to fly a hot air over Parliament House in the name of climate change came crashing to a halt after CASA issued an air-traffic ban.

A CASA spokesman told 2600 the application to ban the balloon was lodged last week and came into effect on Saturday.“It was about responding to a risk of aviation activities around parliament that could have put people at risk. The balloon was part of this. Greens leader Richard Di Natale was unimpressed with the flight ban and accused the Morrison government political interference.

“I spend a couple of weeks in parliament house and I feel demoralised that government’s refusing to act and then seeing the energy, enthusiasm, passion and commitment of young people collectively saying, ‘enough is enough’ – that’s what’s going to change things.”

Womp womp.

Burning propane directly to bring attention to Carbon Dioxide emissions causing a 'climate emergency'. Tomorrow, a bacon and egg breakfast to promote veganism, a ham and champagne luncheon to promote halal food and talk about wasting taxpayer money by parliamentarians....

Was that a solar powered hot air balloon? Or a greens BS fuelled hot air balloon?

Mark Butler is a lapdog of the greens and bandt.. Bandt failed to push this bullshit so butler and other socialists in labor trying it

AdamBandt ride a push bike to work in Canberra if not lead by example all the ClimateAction flogs

You would expect that from the ant 🐜

Like Adam Bandt a failure.

Oh stop it...The confluence of hot air and the greens is too exquisite!!!!:}

Is it not burning gas that makes the hot air ballon rise. That’s a fossil fuel. Like I said yesterday. I never seen a tree planted in Melbourne on the weekend but lots of paper and cardboard placards.

That picture right there sums the greens up, full of hot air and never getting off the ground!!!

Wasting money -, that's all the far left know how to do. That and name calling. Idiots.

A climate emergency against fossil fuels, using fossil fuel.... how thick are the greens..? Seriously ...protest a dead horse riding in on a dead horse

So, what’s the gas they used to inflate the balloon. Just askin.!!

Houston, we have a problem. We need more hot air.

Let’s face it, Adam couldn’t organise a root in a brothel.

😂 😂 😂

This just in: “The UK Greens have just claimed responsibility for the accidental shooting down of the balloon in Canberra. The RAAF are searching for a rogue ‘giant’ inflatable Donald Trump’ The UK Greens have issued an apology to their antipodean comrades”.

Couldn’t they have just connected it to the aircon from both Senate and HoRs? Plenty of hot air in there.

I want a front row seat.

Just like the Greens. Expensive failures. Wonder who pays.

JazzaBazza_ I'm sure there's a joke about 'Hot Air' just waiting to be told around here somewhere.

Stunt after stunt after stunt from this dopey .........

They are an utter joke

Thank goodness for that.

all that wasted gas now in the atmosphere... probly make Canberra a lot cleaner AdamBandt

Hilarious... because hot air balloons run on hot air.. maybe he should have been under it

So...what EXACTLY is the balloon, components made from? Tricky questions: What was the gas, where did it come from and who/what transported it? And now: The gas bottle was made from?

The good Lord is helping us win this war👏👏👍

Only true emergency is his state of South Australia which will be having blackouts again soon when it starts getting hot .....

is it true that the hot air for the balloon was supplied exclusively by RichardDiNatale & AdamBandt

And none of them jumped. 😩

Good

We need to put a Private Members Bill banning Greens bullshit and confusion during woeking hours... It will be a combined Greens bullshit and crap tax!!!!+

The Crap Channel of Deniers. No viewers...No wonder!

😂😂😂😂

de-nut

Another winner, Adam.AdamBandt 😂🤪😂🤪😂🤪😂🤪😂🤪😂🤪😂🤪🤪🤪

michaelpurvis64 Parliament had used up all the hot air

The Greens are mad worldwide..something tells me they need a strategy change 😂

😂😂

'Climate Change is Real” Earth on a natural climate see-saw BUT There Is No Climate Emergency

LMAO is it providence or irony?

Adam needs to be sanctioned by Parliament. Presenting false or misleading evidence to Parliament is an offence.

CLIMATE CHANGE BY AIR✈️ 24/7 ADAM BANDT. LOOK UP AND SEE. WAKE UP WITH SUN🌞RISE.

Typical the greens are clueless ,couldn't even run a chook raffle. fools accountability must come.

Greens climate protest deflated by 'political interference' | Sky News AustraliaThe Greens’ plan to fly a hot air balloon over Parliament House has been deflated after a last-minute air traffic ban prevented it from taking flight.\n\nGreens leader Richard Di Natale hit out at the Morrison government accusing it of political interference after the balloon was grounded by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. \n\nMr Di Natale said while the protest demonstration was stopped, the Prime Minister would not 'keep our voices silent'. \n\n'[Mr Morrison] sits on his hands when it comes to a climate emergency, but throws the book at people who are protesting peacefully because they’re sick of government inaction,' he said.\n\nThe plan ran aground after Speaker Tony Smith and Senate President Scott Ryan spoke to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), which has since put a temporary ban on flying over Parliament House.\n\nThe Greens claim they already obtained approval from the Australian Federal Police and CASA. There more hot air in the Greens then in the balloon. Horrid people take advantage of a crisis to push their pathetic political barrow. Let it fly & use it as target practice.
