Liberal MP David Sharma says it is reasonable for Nationals to raise concerns in regard to Scott Morrison’s net zero emissions by 2050 target.
“The Nats have got constituents, just some of my rural Liberal colleagues have constituents who are worried about this,” Mr Sharma told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
“And they’re right to have concerns, and they’re right to anxieties, and it’s important that those concerns and anxieties are addressed.”
He said issues the Nationals may want to discuss with the government include the steps which should be taken to protect communities that will be more exposed if “high emissions-intensive industries” are “less tolerated”.
“And that’s a perfectly sensible discussion for them to be having.”

Maybe the Nationals can pay for the next round of climate change fueled floods droughts and bushfire recovery payments.. *instead the rest of us paying for their mistakes and denial for the last 20 years.*
Smooth criminal
Grow a pair and fight against this insane target on a fairytale. We are all fine except for the deranged screaming for this net zero. We should not be going.
F the government and f the world it’s all smoke and mirrors….
Libs need a change in leadership if they’re looking to win next election.
Political theatre.
Oh great this climate change bs. A tragedy this is coming into fruition
they might have to do something for a change.
The Nationals are not the only ones that are right to have concerns, every Australian has a right to be concerned…enough to change the government at the next election!
The demise of the LNP…
Soon this centuries most incompetent LNP government will be nothing more than a bad memory…
Bring on the election…….🥾

Volcanos pollute. Defund volcanos
Of 33 developed countries, Australia has the lowest emission targets while,seeking exemptions for fossil fuels.
Aussie and New Zealand could go zero emissions tomorrow and the planet would not even notice, we are such small emitters for CO2 it's absolute rubbish to suggest we should cripple our industries and all drive EVs and go solar and wind for energy with all the blackouts and economic restrictions that would cause, we make not one bit of difference, I have no intention of living in a fucking cave because some greenie has fucked our economy
Of course these companies will make money out of it, from the citizens who pay for it.
All these Glasgow heads Will be dead by 2050. Australia Nuclear power only. China Russia won't commit, . Thats why no show.
The analogy about sending your troops to war is shit, our troops made a difference, they achieved something, emissions are something completely different, if Russia, China and India do not get on board there is no difference Aussie could make to climate emissions, also it's bollocks, Aussies CSIRO has stated the matter of mans influence on the climate is unresolved, we don't even know if man is having much of an effect at all, no one has quantified the influence of man vs that of nature, get it through your heads this climate change emergency is only a business opportunity for some of the worlds biggest players.
Sahib David does not represent us. Flip flop party. No Carbon Tax, No ETS, but wait we can do better….
Have a debate and election to follow.
Howard took us to open ended war of more than 20 years, not again pls.🇦🇺
Hey Dave, who do you have investments with, which energy companies are you invested in, those promoting renewable energy I would suggest
any more demands and i will not be voting for these green tossers
Just imagine if this climate change issue is actually true, now that is worth worrying about. The cost of net zero has been calculated, what is the cost of not doing anything has not so its difficult to have a balanced position. China and India are doing amazing work on this.
Give an example David
Learn about nuclear now in 10 years will have nuclear ships
Virtue signalling started 35 years ago
Perhaps it is better to strive for net zero stupidity of our decision makers.
Atenção fasso este á pelo para quem está a ser escravo do mal não tire á vida de outros não fassam mal á uma criança, não te esqueças que você também já foste crianças, não fassam mal á uma criança
Sky news is owned by blackrock the biggest criminal corporation in the world
Subsidies are the profit for these companies or they would not have a bar of it.
I really do respect Dave's POV. But to say the world is going in "that" direction is not justification for us following. For gods sake, do we really want the energy issues Europe are facing now ?. My dad use to say, if your mate stuck his head is a fire box, would you ?
I dont care if a thousand idiots stick their heads in the fire…..I'd prefer not to :-)😊
Meanwhile China is a developing nation with a nuclear arsenal and we're the pollution problem?
Net Zero Will just let China walk in and take over
The further you go into the city the more detached from reality you are
sharma what prick , being on the world stage means nothing if thousand of Australian lose there jobs on over this perthetic idea , and again we see it from a dosy polictian , defending china and India who have not signed up to anything or going to
Government is telling us in plain sight what will happen. Zero freedom, Zero property ownership, Zero tolerance to those opposing communism, Zero say over your own body autonomy. Zero for us, heaps for the elite in power.
Because it doesnt look after their corrupt cronies
Co2 has gone up in last 30 years but temp has not. JOB DONE. NO TEMP RISE,NO ICE MELTING, NO SEA LEVEL RISE. TRUE .NOTHING EXTRAORDINARY. Weather has always had extremes look at the records last 200 years.
Climate activists are right to have concerns, and they’re right to have anxieties, and it’s important that those concerns and anxieties are addressed.
Australia needs to reduce its carbon emissions by at least 50% by 2030 because
* 28 trillion tonnes (28,000 km3) of the Earth's ice has melted since 1994.
* That is enough to cover an area the size of Australia in 3.6m of water.
* Over the course of a 23-year-long study from 1994 to 2017 researchers saw close to a 60% increase in the rate of global ice loss.
* Satellite observations reveal that 6.1 trillion tonnes of ice melted from mountain glaciers, 3.8 trillion tonnes were lost from the Greenland ice sheet, and 2.5 trillion tonnes disappeared from the Antarctic ice sheet.
* Also 7.6 trillion tons of the floating ice cover on the Arctic Ocean melted and 6.5 trillion tons melted from the Antarctic's floating ice shelves.
* The September Arctic Sea ice volume declined by an alarming 75% from 1979 to 2019.
