But,

- Australia already has an outsized impact on *increasing* global emissions. This could stop.

- Australia could also export clean energy and power (undersea cables)

- Australia could influence other gov& #39;ts by demonstrating the immediate benefits of decarbonisation

*That* would not be insubstantial. That is what most politicians who are listening to the science are advocating for, because the science doesn& #39;t say "Australia can do nothing, it& #39;s all good", the science says a global effort is the only way to lessen these impacts.

Part of why getting this happening is so hard is because if we& #39;d started two decades ago, it& #39;d be easy and do-able, but because the hour is so late, the change must be extreme.

And so, the Klein principle applies, again.

I also think that the communication from Greens MPs has been pretty clear on this - the action of a country like Australia is necessary, but it is insufficient on its own.

*Nobody* is suggesting Aus act alone. But it& #39;s easy to pretend they are, and argue against that.

Anyway. Rant over, but honestly. I feel like we ought to be past this already.
