Politicians around the world have been calling for faster and faster action to reduce emissions. Our own Prime Minister has joined the political hype-train by announcing climate change is "my"/her generation’s nuclear free moment (who made everyone under 40 "her" generation? and why are we now pitting different generations against each other?) Politicians around the world have clamoured over each other to announce they will do more than the other for climate change, but, so far, we haven't seen any material change in emissions. Labour-Greens have had power for 2 years and haven’t yet passed an amendment to the emissions trading scheme.
