Multinational gas corporations are already getting Australian gas for free.
But the free ride doesn’t end there: Labor has set up loopholes so that coal and gas corporations can buy their way out of Australia’s climate laws.
Labor’s “carbon credits” are tokens big polluters can buy and use to pay off their emissions, instead of cutting the pollution themselves.
It’s a get-out-of-jail-free card that lets them keep polluting, and it’s keeping coal and gas in the system.
Coal and gas need to be kept in the ground.
Multinational coal and gas corporations continue to make billions while Australians pay the price through higher energy bills, rising insurance costs and increasingly dangerous summers.
It’s very clear that the majority of Australians want these corporations to pay their fair share for our resources and to stop getting a free ride to continue to pollute.
The government has the power to change this tomorrow.
Labor needs to pick a side: multinational coal and gas corporations or the Australian people.
