I see Senator Canavan perpetuating the falsehood that other members of his party have been perpetuating this week by claiming that emissions are going up or actually are flatlining when actually the facts, something that Senator Canavan is never keen to recognise, show that Australia is tracking well to meet our 2030 climate pollution target, with new quarterly emissions data showing that emissions fell by 6.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in the year to March 2025. I know it doesn't really suit Senator Canavan and all the other guests on 'Sky after dark' to actually talk about facts, data and evidence about climate emissions, but our policies are bringing them down, and we want to do more.
