Is anyone surprised? Climate change zealot = hypocrite.
And in the seat of Warringah, where a battleline has been drawn over climate change issues, independent candidate Zali Steggall has been spotted behind the wheel of a Nissan Pathfinder T1 model, which can emit an eye-watering 234g of carbon dioxide per kilometre.
Ms Steggall has been heavily critical of her opponent Tony Abbott’s climate change record and on Tuesday backed a plan to build more electric cars in Australia.
On Thursday The Daily Telegraph put questions to her about whether her personal vehicle of choice was at odds with her stance on climate change, whether she planned to buy a low-emitting vehicle, and if she supported Labor’s electric vehicle policy. She did not respond.
