Senator Matt Canavan says the Labor Party and the Greens do not mind if country and rural communities pay the price of rapid action on climate change, “because they don’t live in those areas”.
Mr Canavan criticised the “hypocrisy” of other nations like New Zealand and Canada who have not yet met their Kyoto or Paris targets but condemn Australia for its apparent inaction on climate change. “This hypocrisy has got no end”. Mr Canavan told Sky News host Peta Credlin Australia should not “sign up to effectively unilaterally do more action” while other countries are not “meeting the commitments they have actually said they would do”.
mattjcan It is unbelievable that Labor has moved so much to the left that became blind and unrepresentative of regional workers. Labor is now controlled by inner city elitists that live in a parallel universe. That is why so many people is voting One Nation.
mattjcan No, WE THE ACTUAL SILENT MAJORITY, dont care about nobs that kill the planet and ruin out ecosystems and pollute our water and steal our water and lie about the amount of jobs there going to generate for the LNPCrimeFamily to sound like their creating jobs. Fixed it for you.
mattjcan They want to buy all agricultural produce from overseas and manufactured products. Where is the money coming from?
mattjcan Greens hate Australia.
This will trigger the lefties that don’t want to hear the truth
mattjcan But he keeps forgetting property he owns. How on earth can we believe he understands the complexities of this?
mattjcan The labor and greens are one party now it’s called the new socialist greens party.
mattjcan More rubbish spoken by the ignorant Matt Canavan, retold by the fiction telling Sky News. If Labor & Greens voters don’t live in rural seats then how do those respective parties gain Labor & Greens votes. I guess they must win confused National party voters votes...
mattjcan I don’t think people understand rural areas. For people In the city climate change is the only problem but in the country it is if the sheep have enough feed and living pay check to pay check trying to provide for their family. City people need to walk a day in others shoes
mattjcan Matt your a complete f xxxx wit
mattjcan His investments are being threatened
mattjcan I do live in coal area. I like labors plan.
mattjcan Canavan is wrong, as usual.auspol
mattjcan NATIONALS only care about digging holes in the ground. They will always put mining before Farming and Rural Communities. auspol
mattjcan Can't believe you seriously care about the rural community past their vote that is.....how on Earth after all these drought and fire you still have the Udacity to spin this shit?! All we are suffering is due to climate changes... seriously mate think of your kids.
mattjcan Selling your farms for mines, the new Nationals
mattjcan Because a job is more important than you know.. being alive..
mattjcan Exactly
mattjcan We're already paying the price by not having rapid action on climate change
mattjcan Contact your political uncle Joyce, its hit the fan mate!🥵 Your boss is going around approving of net zero emissions by 2050. But only if a Liberal says it. Says its possible because Libs have a plan, a $2bn deal to frack gas in NSW. What a nut 😆
mattjcan Matteo is the master of hypocrisy Other countries with net zero emission goals
mattjcan Remind what the farmers and livestock federations think of carbon emissions mattjcan. Oh yes, they’ve committed to net zero emissions by 2050. (You best look up what net zero means).
mattjcan Labor policy will kill regional areas
mattjcan sick and tired of this sky news bs. with no climate action we are doomed
mattjcan Reckon they’re already paying the price (drought and bushfires). They also have a huge opportunity to make an income from emissions reduction (wind farms, carbon farming). Canavan is *literally* working against their best interests.
mattjcan It’s like all virtue signalling! It’s ok, as long as it’s not in my backyard!
mattjcan Never mind that shit, there's Baboons on the loose!
mattjcan FARMERS DEMAND ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE.
mattjcan He doesn't care when people die in bushfires and floods or lose their jobs due to drought in these areas because he is a massive wanker.

Greens' new 'climate trigger' bill will force 'climate change assessment' onto big projects | Sky News AustraliaGreens Senator Sarah Hanson Young says her new private member’s bill which will be introduced to parliament on Monday will enforce a “climate trigger” into Australia’s environmental laws.\n\nThe bill will aim to ensure large, potentially environmentally damaging projects such as oil drillings and the building of new mines will have to undergo an environmental assessment to ascertain their effects on climate change.\n\nMs Hanson-Young told Sky News host Sharri Markson none of the current environment laws and assessments “include the impact on climate change” of such projects and in fact “don't allow for big projects … to be assessed before they’re given a ‘green tick of approval’”.\n\nLiberal Senator Zed Seselja said the Greens “rarely think about … what the actual impacts are on jobs (or) what the impact is on the economy” for such actions on climate change.\n\nImage: Getty Tuesday I know what I’d like to “trigger” and it’s not climate. sarahinthesen8 Sarah you are the only gutsy one , keep on rockin please , Cheers Sue

Waleed Aly 'wants Australia to learn from Germany on climate change': Kenny | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says Channel Ten's The Project,” is “unashamedly woke, pitching its program and what it calls news at the young, and presumably, the ill-informed'. \n\nMr Kenny referenced a recent report by Waleed Aly where the host presented Germany “as an exemplar on climate change action and sensible, efficient energy policies”. \n\nIn comparison, Australia was contrasted as a country that isn’t “doing anything” on the issue of climate change. \n\n“The Project claimed Germany is showing Australia the way in the here and now,” he said. \n\nMr Kenny referenced recently released reports that “shows German electricity prices are the highest of the major world economies at 34c a kilowatt hour”. \n\nHe argued this is 41 per cent higher than Australia at 24 cents per kilowatt hour and 126 per cent higher than the United States. \n\n“Waleed Aly and The Project say we should be emulating the wonderful climate action success story of Germany'. \n\n“Is that what The Project is arguing for, or do they really think they can just pump out fake news and no one will ever check out the actual facts?' Mr Kenny said. \n\nImage: Getty \n Chris Kenny saying someone is uninformed. Rupert come on old man. That's so funny 😂. Why then, does kenny get 10% of their ratings and his market share is dwindling? As opposed to Sky viewers, who are asleep at the wheel because they are so seriously ill-informed by your ClimateCrisis disinformation network...

No 'climate clause' in future UK, EU trade deals: govt | Sky News AustraliaTrade Minister Simon Birmingham has dismissed speculation that trade deals with the EU and the UK could be jeopardised by the Coalition’s emission reduction target.\n\nThe Johnson government in the UK committed to a net zero emission target by 2050, however the Coalition refused to say whether it would match that pledge when Federal Energy Minister Angus Taylor fronts the next major UN climate summit in Glasgow this November.\n\nMr Birmingham told Sky News “no such requests” have been made for a climate clause to be inserted in any future free trade deal.\n\n“We would be more than willing as always to reinforce our commitment, time and time again, to the implementation of the Paris agreement, to the efforts we are doing as a country to lead in renewable energy.\n\n“I’m confident that if we’re going to have discussions at any stage about energy transformation, about climate change matters, that Australia has a positive story to tell. “\n\nThe government has been keen to tie up a free trade agreement with both the EU and the UK following Brexit, as Australia looks to diversify trade beyond China. \n\nWhen asked whether he believed the government should follow the UK’s lead and adopt a net zero emission reduction target by 2050, the trade minister said he didn’t want to see a target adopted without a plan. \n\n“It’s a statement of fact that the Paris agreement, that Australia is a party to, that it has an ambition to see net zero achieved in the second half of this century. Different to the type of target you are talking about,” Mr Birmingham said. \n\n“There is no point in just putting a date on something and say this is when it’s going to happen if you don’t have a plan to get there.”\n\n Birmo Little point setting a Net Zero target by 2050 Just to watch countries like Australia do bugger all. Of course it will be part of the deal.

Labor's 'reckless' climate policy is not one of a 'party of government' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator Zed Seselja says Labor’s 2050 net zero emissions target is the type of policy to be expected from a “minor party like the Greens, but not a party who claims to be a party of government”.\n\nIn contrast to Labor’s “reckless” policy announcement, the Liberal Party have opted against an emissions target beyond 2030, but instead have argued for a renewed focus on technology regarding climate policy.\n\n“We will set out our policies which will include a focus on technology,” he said.\n\nMr Seselja told Sky News host Sharri Markson you cannot “lead a nation in this policy area with just aspirational targets” which could have “very significant economic impacts”.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia Boris Johnson is doing it in the UK 🤔 Shuts some people up while clearly not creating any action or even appropriately addressing the problem? Sounds like government to me 2050 is like bare minimum dedication and its still got the toads losing their shit lmao

So hazard reduction was the cause? Sky on the ball as usual. What Crap.
