Just south-west of this 25,000 square kilometres of ocean you're going to open up, off the coast of Adelaide we have a dead ocean from a toxic algal bloom that has been linked to warming oceans that have been linked to rising emissions that have been linked to fossil fuels. What have you got to say to communities in South Australia when you are opening up new areas for oil and gas exploration in the oceans in a time of climate emergency? I can't work out whether you're deliberately misinforming the Senate around climate change or you actually have a plan to properly reduce emissions and transition to renewable energy. (Time expired)
