Waters, Sen Larissa

Senator WATERS (Queensland—Leader of the Australian Greens in the Senate) (14:24): My question is to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. The countries going to the climate summit in Glasgow that have significantly increased their 2030 targets in this critical decade are the US, the UK, the EU, Canada, South Africa, Norway, South Korea, Japan, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Kenya, the United Arab Emirates and many others. Australia and Russia have not increased their ambition. Will you, as foreign minister, allow the National Party to throw this country's global reputation in the bin?
