My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Methane is 80 times more potent in capturing heat than CO2 in the first 20 years, yet Australia does not enforce international best practice when it comes to measurement and capture of methane. Will you support implementing international best practice in measurement and abatement of methane, as I've proposed in the amendments to the safeguard mechanism, in light of the dire but clear warning in the latest IPCC report that we are on track to catastrophic warming?
