My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Resources, Water and Northern Australia, Senator Ruston. Yesterday, Woodside got the green light for the Scarborough gas project, which will generate 1.6 billion tonnes of emissions—equivalent to 15 coal-fired power stations every year. Scarborough will be the most polluting gas project in all of Australia. Minister, how could the Morrison government approve the most fossil-fuel-polluting project ever proposed in Australia?
