Prime Minister Scott Morrison has rejected naturalist David Attenborough’s scathing critique of Australia’s new net zero policy.

“There are still people in Australia who say ‘no, no, no, no, of course it’s very unfortunate that there was that forest fire that absolutely demolished, incinerated that village, but it’s a one-off’.

“But every month that passes, it becomes more and more incontrovertible, the changes to the planet that we are responsible for that are having these devastating effects.” Asked whether he was “embarrassed” by Mr Attenborough’s strong words accusing the federal government of prioritising the economy over the planet, Mr Morrison said he was not.

He rejects everything that is put to him that doesn't agree with his narrative. His 'I reject the premise' is just his version of a person screaming at police 'I don't consent to you arresting me'...

But if someone from hillsong said something maybe he would listen to them rather than the man who has watched the world burn up close and for all species for nearly 100 years

Everyone thinks you're a joke Morrison. Worldwide.

Yes because scomo knows more about it than David Attenborough!!

Now he’s done it. He could have picked a fight with just about anyone but no….he’s picked a fight with The DA!! A biggly huge mistake!!!!!!

There is no plan. It's coal & gas business as usual. BTW I hate every single person at your propaganda outlet. May you live in interesting times.

Morrison just continues to make a giant ARSE of himself

What’s new He rejects the premise of any question from anyone He’s got us on the front page of world’s media AGAIN His ignorance is unbelievable He’s destroyed our reputation his LNPCorruptionParty LNPClimateCriminals submarine scottythebackstabber no deal EnoughIsEnough

Because twice sacked QAnon Pentecostal salesman knows best 🙄

Because Scott would...because he has also been a direct beneficiary from the profits made by the fossil fuel industry. Who brought a lump of coal into our Parliament...that would be ScottyfromMarketing

He's like the internet crowd who 'do their own research' and thus reject expert opinions. We are led by mini-minds. morrison

Covid-19 news must be slowing… here comes climate change news again. Farking so predictable

And?

Good

Nice to see ScottyHasAPamphlet living up to the Aussie stereotypes

winker

More marketing spin from Morrison. Does he actually believe in climate change or has he been pushed kicking and screaming? Many in the coalition don't believe in it.

Hmmm let’s think. Which of these two men is likely to be chock full of sh!t?

No plan never was. Know who I will listen to and it is not lnp

Government commits to making Australia carbon-neutral by 2050Australia has joined the world in promising to make the nation carbon-neutral by 2050, ahead of a global climate change summit. . Wording - “up to 35%” emissions reduction by 2030 is a projection, not a commitment. Net zero 2050 will not be legislated (mandated). Yay, we will stop growing products that degrade farms like soy, corn, conola, and wheat? instead, all will start growing nutritious grass regenerating the landscape with cattle sheep, and other grazers?
