I move:
That the Senate—
(a) notes that:
(i) on 1 June 2017 during Senate Estimates hearings, Australia's Chief Scientist, Dr Finkel, was asked by former Senator Ian Macdonald if the world was to reduce its carbon emissions by 1.3%, which is approximately Australia's rate of emissions, what impact would that make on the changing climate of the world, and
(ii) Dr Finkel's response was that "the impact would be virtually nothing"; and
(b) further notes that:
(i) reducing all or part of Australia's emissions will have virtually no effect on the global temperature; and
(ii) all Australian climate policies designed to reduce our carbon dioxide output, whether past, present or future, will have no measurable benefit to humanity or the environment.
Question negatived.
