the environment minister @Melissa4Durack mislead the public today.
the minister said emissions have plateaued — they have, in fact, increased year on year.
she used the word "honest" many times in the interview. this was one of several lies.

.@Melissa4Durack told @Raf_Epstein the ERF has abated 193 MtCO₂ already.
this is false.
since its 2015 inception, ERF has abated just 37.6 Mt, less than 20% of the minister's claim.
to put it into context the bayswater coal power station has emitted ~60 Mt over same period.

193 Mt is what the ERFv1.0 will have delivered by 2028 *if* every project is successful.
by then, bayswater will have emitted another 150 MtCO₂.
either @Melissa4Durack is not across her portfolio, or she holds the electorate in contempt. or both.
