Minister, to get to net zero by 2050, Australia's required run rate for emissions reduction is 18 million tonnes per year, but the government has been going at a run rate of just one million tonnes per year. At that rate, we'll hit net zero in the year 2462. Minister, isn't it time to declare your innings on your failing net zero batting efforts, given that even Travis Head couldn't lift a run rate this low? Let's face it: Chris Bowen ain't no Travis Head.
