Nationals Debate Net Zero: Mad Science or Just Madness?
In an episode that proves politics is the perfect stage for 'total madness,' independent senator David Pocock slammed the Coalition's net zero approach, saying 'It's total madness to see the path that the Coalition is taking on this.' But don't despair! Amidst the chaos, Pocock offers hope by rallying everyone to update laws on heavy equipment safety, turning climate debate drama into a thrilling chance to regulate industry more safely. He reminds us that Australia loves 'punching above our weight,' so maybe this is just their heavyweight round in environmental diplomacy. Everything happens for a reason!
