My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Water, Senator Wong. Minister, given the need to respond to the threat of climate change, can you please update the Senate on the government’s action to turn Australia’s carbon pollution around and support investment in renewable energy? How can the government ensure that the equivalent of all of Australia’s household electricity supply will come from renewable energy sources? And why, even with all the direct support for renewable energy, is the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme still fundamental if we are going to successfully tackle climate change?
