Really ? I don't think so .
" Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg has hit back at Tony Abbott, quoting the former prime minister’s own words in the top job that the Paris agreement he signed up to was “economically responsible and environmentally responsible” and declaring “climate change is real”. "
“We take our advice from the scientific experts. We believe we need to reduce our emissions. That is why Tony Abbott signed up to the Paris agreement,” Mr Frydenberg said.
“I point out that, at the time, Tony Abbott said that the agreement Australia struck at Paris was a definite commitment and that it was economically responsible and environmentally responsible. “They were Tony Abbott’s words. Now the Turnbull Government is continuing the work of Coalition governments to reduce carbon emissions but to do so in a way that doesn’t compromise the affordability and the reliability of our system.”
In 2015, Mr Abbott signed Australia up to a 26 to 28 per cent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions on 2005 levels by 2030 at the Paris climate change conference. "
