Decision angers environment groups with Australian Conservation Foundation saying Albanese government âcontinues to disappointâ
Kerry says voter pressure underpinned prior climate policy successes: âPeople shuddered at the prospect of losing their seats. By being a voting issue we passed the Clean Air Act⌠and we created the environmental protection agency in the United States of America.â #ClimateWeekNYC
