If it wanted to, that is.

The Agreement specifies a review of nonsensical emission reduction targets every five years, and the government could change its mind in the period 2020-21 if it came to its senses and did a few sums on the cost of achieving zero emissions.

The wildest goals come from Extinction Rebellion: zero emissions by 2025. To achieve this, and retain an ASSURED electricity supply, would require Australia to build 33 nuclear power plants each year from now on.

Greens and the Conservation Council on zero emissions by 2040. 8.5 nuclear plants per year.

Labor Party, zero emissions by 2050, 5.5 nuclear plants per year.

Morrison Government: same as Labor thanks to Turnbull's dirty work before his demise. But, they could legitimately, in 2020-21, come to their senses and follow the US in getting out, and start repairing our economy.

(Based on a report by Dr. Roger Pielke, researcher and writer for IPCC).

They could but they won't as all those hysterical schoolgirls will
be turning 18 at the time of the next election.
Now that information is accumulating that the warming of the last
200 years or so is a natural cycle it could change things but I do not
think it will get ready acceptance by the next election, so the
government should keep on pretending that co2 is warming the earth.
If they stop pretending we will get a government that really is forced
to believe it to keep the greens on side.
The greens and the UN do not appear to believe it either, and it is
looking more and more likely that their position is just the old
socialist dogma writ large.

Isn't it time 97 per cent of scientist lost their jobs. To think I am paying three times as much for power than I should be thanks to Rudd, Gillard and Turnbull. I do hope Morrison has at least a tenth of the courage of Trump who has called these Marxist out for who they are.

Well, Trump isn't a politician, Morrison is so you might be in for a long wait.

Bazz,

From what I've read, these kids are not really interested in democracy and voting, and they will probably lose interest when real life hits and they are looking for jobs. I think we are getting closer to the point where voting is just a formality. Politicians are not listening to us any more.

runner,

Morrison has no courage; he is a waste of space, and

individual,

you have hit the nail on the head - Trump is doing the right thing because he is not a politician, but look how he is vilified by all and sundry, including those he is trying to help.

The fault is all ours. We have been too complacent for too long. We could be looking at a one party state like you know who. It won't be a matter of being taken over by China, it will be our own mob becoming like China.

Runner the 97% were not 97% did mot all believe AGW.
It was a much smaller percentage.
I think they will vote as they will still have the teachers voice
ringing in their ears.
They might even still be attending demo parties.

I see on tv tonight a Labor party man said that the sea has sisen in
Melbourne but a conservative said it had fallen in Sydney.
They were arguing about tide marks, Fort Denison's is over 100 years old.
Oh well an interesting time ahead.
