The Greens and Labor are opposing this bill. What a surprise! Senator Rice said that we've got to act on climate change. It's amazing that when Senator Macdonald asked Dr Alan Finkel, 'If we stop all our emissions in Australia, at a huge cost and a huge sacrifice for business, what difference will we make to the world?' The answer was: virtually nothing. So we go down this road that Australia's going to change the world with our CO2 emissions—no, we're not. We're going to have virtually no effect whatsoever.
