Global warming, or climate change, is an increase in the earth’s atmospheric temperature since the late nineteenth century. In politics, the debate over global warming is centered on whether this increase in temperature is due to greenhouse gas emissions or is the result of a natural pattern in the earth’s temperature. Australia is currently looking to reduce emissions to 26-28% on 2005 levels by 2030.

Yes 100%, But not at the detriment of human or animal kind in the guise of carbon credit tax incentives.
@99GYFMH2yrs2Y
No, global warming is a hoax/myth
@9WBVDKC3mos3MO
no, We should aim to recycle as much as posible, global warm has not been proven in any reports and should be a factor in this question.
@9J4S9JL1yr1Y
Depends cost of living should be consider. Where possible business try do keep the carbon footprint within range. Such a businesess be awarded.
@9HZMX3B1yr1Y
No, It should be working with states that are yet to improve their environmental regulations to a standard that is in line with Australia before we increase ours. China and India have far lower standards than Australia. working with these states will have much larger impacts to the slowing of global warming than a country as Australia.
@9F9VNPV1yr1Y
Yes, through a mix of light legislated regulations on business activities as well as incentivising in alternate, environmentally friendly energy production alternatives such as wind, hydro, solar and nuclear.
@9F53VMX1yr1Y
Yes, but only to large businesses and provide more incentives for alternative energy production.
@9RSXS5H6mos6MO
Yes, but this needs to be regulated with humility due to what we want, and what we can realistically get
