UNITED KINGDOM PARLIAMENT — CLIMATE CHANGE
EMERGENCY DECLARATION
433. Hon TIM CLIFFORD to the Minister for Environment:
I refer to the United Kingdom
Parliament's declaration of a climate change emergency, which calls for
net zero emissions by 2050 and a zero waste economy within the next six months.
Will the state government follow the lead of the UK government and declare a climate
emergency?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
The answer is no.
