Gas emissions...that's right. That's the nub of the problem. To be fair, the federal government has brought in a number of strong climate laws in the last seven years. It actually has a pretty good track record. We have probably done more in the last seven years than we did in the previous 30, so there's a lot of good progress being made on tackling climate change and building a clean economy. However, more needs to be done in this bill.
This is the foundational bill that deals with major development projects and looks at the overall environmental impacts. We're missing a really important piece of the puzzle when we do those assessments. If you're not looking at the air pollution and you're not looking at the climate impacts, it's like missing an important part of a painting when you're staring at it.
