Mr. Speaker, that is the most ridiculous answer I have ever heard. How can the government keep this charade going on? The treaty will do nothing for the environment. Carbon credit trading simply moves enormous quantities of emissions from one location to another. It will cost billions of dollars. It will lead to massive job losses and it is already damaging our investment economy.
If the Prime Minister really wants to leave an environmental legacy, why does the Deputy Prime Minister not get the Kyoto albatross off from around his neck?
