‘Technology not taxes’: Energy minister hits back at critics over emissions reduction efforts

32 minutes ago

In the same time as Australia’s emissions have come down 20 per cent, China’s emissions have “increased by 200 per cent,” according to Energy and Emissions Reduction Minister Angus Taylor. “They’ve gone from 13 per cent of global emissions up to 28 per cent of global emissions – they’re approaching a third of global emissions,” Mr Taylor told Sky News host Paul Murray.

Mr Taylor said critics of Australia’s emissions reduction efforts should “focus on where the emissions problems and challenges are”.

AngusTaylorMP AngusTaylorMP how is the plan coming along? You still can't provide a copy of the so-called plan you took to the last election, let alone a new one. What technology are you using? A switch? Why can't you explain what 'technology' you are getting on with? I bet it doesn't exist.

AngusTaylorMP So negative externalities shouldn't be paid for eh? Privatise the gains socialise the losses. Socialism? Who pays for increasing insurance premiums?

AngusTaylorMP Taylor could point to the sky and say it's blue and I wouldn't believe him, because it's Angus Taylor. No LNP MP ever tells the truth about anything.

AngusTaylorMP No we'd all believe Angus Taylor🤔

AngusTaylorMP Has Clover checked these figures? Was Cormann contracted to do a count?

AngusTaylorMP Stop selling OUR coal to them to melt OUR iron ore. 👍Simple

AngusTaylorMP Hahaha Sky.... a propaganda platform from the vassal govt

AngusTaylorMP Well, if AngusTaylorMP says it’s true, who are we to argue. “Angus Taylor makes false accusations about Sydney mayor’s travel expenses as his office is accused of forging a Sydney City Council document.”

AngusTaylorMP Uh can we get this fact checked?

AngusTaylorMP Enough fun but if you really want to get real about emissions reductions it was the private sector and people wanting out of being raped by energy cartels. Stop claiming the amputees 100m gold medal.
