Important times in the @AboutTheHouse as we proceed through the consideration in details stage of the Climate Change Bill. #auspol

✅ @Mon4Kooyong has moved an amendment to strengthen the objects of the Climate Change Bill to ensure the goal of the Paris Agreement of keeping warming to +1.5. #climateaction

✅ Amendment moved by @zdaniel to Climate Change Bill to ensure 43% emissions reduction by 2030 is clearly a floor, not a ceiling passed!👍 #auspol

✅ @MakeMayoMatter moving and supporting amendments by @helenhainesindi (absent due to Covid) to ensure advice to govt by climate change authority considers impacts & needs of rural & regional Australia. #auspol

✅ @SophieScamps has received assurances from @Bowenchris that climate impacts & targets will form part of Innovation Industry & Science considerations. #auspol #climateaction

❌ @WilkieMP moving amendments to increase targets to Net zero by 2035. Whilst I agree that we need to be more ambitious & address our export emissions, I support a sensible accelerating transition that ensures all sectors & communities can prosper through the transition. #auspol

Forgot to say amendment proposed by @ChaneyforCurtin who is unfortunately in Covid iso. We have all worked together with the Minister to improve the legislation. #independents #auspol

❌ @AdamBandt also moving to amend targets to 75% by 2030 & Net zero by 2035. I just don’t believe these targets are achievable. My 5 Steps to Net Zero plan shows how we can achieve 60% emissions reduction by 2030. We need to build consensus. 🌏 #auspol

✅ @spenderallegra amendment to s.12 to ensure govt reports on progress in reducing emissions in all policies and sectors. We need clear plans across all sectors to ensure a sensible transition to Net zero. #auspol

✅ @KyleaTink moving amendment to increase transparency to parliament by requiring the Minister to table Climate Change Authority advice in parliament. Accountability and transparency matter. Coalition voting against!🙄 #auspol

✅ I am moving amendment to s.15 to ensure that when our Govt puts forward a new Nationally Determined Contribution pursuant to the Paris Agreement, it must first seek advice of the Climate Change Authority. Our NDC targets must be informed by science, not just politics.#auspol

✅ @EWatsonBrown moving amendment to s.15 to ensure Climate Change Authority advice must include how targets have taken into account temperature goals of the Paris Agreement.🌏#climateaction #auspol

✅ The Climate Change bill passes the House 89-55! It’s vip to lock in to law Net Zero.🙏 to everyone who supported the Climate Change Bill that I presented in the last parliament.🙏 to @Bowenchris & the govt for engaging collaboratively on this important legislation.🎉🌏#auspol
