Angus Taylor (Hume, Liberal Party, Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction) Share this | Hansard source

Thank you. As I said, we're at the lowest levels of emissions per person in 29 years. They have been falling year on year. It is true that from year to year they bump up and down. There is no doubt that in the last year LNG exports have had an impact on our emissions. There is no doubt about that. But let's talk about that. In the last year, our LNG exports reduced global emissions by up to 26 per cent of our total emissions. When you sell LNG up into China, Korea—Asia—even though we wear the increased emissions from the extraction of that LNG, we see a reduction in global emissions.
