Serious Danger 199: Feeling Climate Triggered as First Homes Guaranteed to cost more
Mr. Albanese Goes To Washington and sells our resources for cheap to dictator while media takes Rudd bait. Emerald and Tom look at the announcement that the government's overhaul of Australia's environment laws won’t include a climate trigger. (9:09) But would a trigger have even stopped them from approving every possible mine? Then, duelling of the thinkpieces as Emma Dawson and Max Chandler-Mather both put out articles about the First Home Guarantee scheme. (40:07) So it’s just a big scam to help the banks? Finally, a call to action (1:06:29).
