    From posts the Turnbull critics are clearly unaware that Tony Abbott actually committed billions to fight climate change. Note it was the Abbott govt not the Turnbull govt.

    "Projects to cut greenhouse gas emissions will receive $660 million in taxpayer dollars under the first auctions of the Abbott government's direct action climate plan.
    In the first hitout for the $2.55 billion scheme, it was revealed on Thursday the government had signed 107 contracts for 144 projects to cut emissions.”
