1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: International Correspondence with NS and Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business. Oliver Peterson, six pur perp Life 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: Presenters with us. Hello, Oali, Hello Heather. Okay, so Albanezi 4 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: crunch time. He's meeting with Trump. Yeah, he is. 5 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 2: He'll get over there asap after just announcing today with 6 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: the Treasury of Jim Chalmers and the Climate Change Minister 7 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: Chris Bowen that the government's target to cut emissions by 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: sixty two to seventy percent by twenty thirty five. He 9 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 2: reckons this is a responsible measure and it is supported 10 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 2: by science. We've already heard from the opposition here that 11 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 2: the announcement made today will not be achievable. We have 12 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: no costings around this. The modeling from Treasury shown that 13 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 2: the economy will be two point two trillion dollars bigger 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 2: if the nation adopted Nordly transitioned by twenty to fifty. 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of cold board already being thrown 16 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: onto the government's climate change targets they're signing up to. 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: He wanted to get this done, as you say, before 18 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: he heads off to this meeting to catch up with 19 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and g is any under pressure because he's 20 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: returned from Specific Island's visit. He hasn't managed to sign 21 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 2: up the security packs with the Puppy and New Guinea 22 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: government hasn't. He hasn't managed to sign up that security 23 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: pack with the government of Vanawatu last week. So he's 24 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: been left fairly red faced. And I know that ABC 25 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: journalist John Lyons is upset Donald Trump as he's over 26 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: there in the United Kingdom at the moment's ahead of 27 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: four corners stories saying he's an embarrassment to his country. So, Heather, 28 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: what does this do for a meeting and a showdown 29 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 2: with Donald Trump? He's never had the ear of the 30 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: US president face to face. He's obviously failed to shore 31 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 2: up regional security. Will that actually help or hinder the 32 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: Orchest arrangement? I think Donald Trump, being the businessman that 33 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 2: he is, will be asking Anthony Albanisi. 34 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: For even more. 35 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: He'll be doing the old Oliver twists. Please, sir, can 36 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: I have more and more money at your defense forces? 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's certainly going to be an interesting one to 38 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: watch because I don't know that any of us can 39 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: call it. Listen to other masks back, are they? 40 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, So we've got a hospital here in New South Wales, 41 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: which has issued a mask mandate. This is not over COVID, 42 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: it's over a measles outbreak. Now this is escalated in 43 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: Queensland and New South Wales and in the last hour 44 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: or so in Western Australia it's now infecting people who 45 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: are in the mines. Now. In measles is something Heather 46 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 2: that we really haven't taken much notice of for quite 47 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 2: a number of years because nobody really thought that there 48 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: was measles anymore, because everybody used toet vaccinated against measles. 49 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: But we've got three cases confirmed in Cans so far. 50 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: North Queensland they've got six, so that's the number that 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: have obviously doubled in that part of Australia. Officials are 52 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: now issuing alerts at Cann's Hospital's maternity ward. You go 53 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: down the coast then into New South Wales and mask 54 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: mandates are being ordered at some north coastal hospitals as 55 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: a result of this measles outbreak. So it's almost sort 56 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: of the COVID years back again. And you know they're 57 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 2: shuddering thinking about mask mandates, Yeah, totally. 58 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: Now you're emissions targets. How realistic are these. 59 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what's going to be interesting. That's what's going 60 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: to be difficult. The government wants to cut a missions 61 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 2: by sixty two to seventy percent by twenty thirty five. 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 2: Albo is saying that it's a responsible measure, Jim Chalmers 63 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: calling the transition of gold and economic opportunity for Australia. 64 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: But it's being pointed out by the opposition that the 65 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: target will not be met, that they have already failed 66 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: to reduce the current targets. There's no chance that twenty 67 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: thirty five target will be achieved, says the opposition, because 68 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 2: they've got no credibility because they're failing to meet their 69 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 2: twenty thirty targets. So the government's trying to have a 70 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: little bob each way, right, They're going to go out 71 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: for a little while then they're going to come down. 72 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: But look, this will be very interesting. I think he 73 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: wanted to make this announcement, as I said before, headed 74 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: before he went off to see Donald Trump, to try 75 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: and wrestle back the National conversation. 76 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: Listen. I mean, this is nonsense, isn't it. There's no 77 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: way you guys are going to cut your emissions by 78 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: potentially seventy percent in the next ten years, and surely 79 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: by now voters as we get closer and closer to 80 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: these targets and we see we don't meet them, voters 81 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: are going to start to see through this crap, aren't they. 82 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: I reckon they would. 83 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: I don't know why you lock yourself into this sort 84 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: of stuff, Like why do you have this target? 85 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: How are we going to do it? 86 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 2: Heather, Like, we've already looked these massive warnings this summer 87 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: that we can't keep the lights on of the air 88 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: conditioning systems running, So how are we going to do it? 89 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: All ride bicycles and have windmills in our own backyards 90 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: and all these batteries, Like, it's just until you have 91 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 2: a concrete baseload solution, you know, this is all just 92 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: Lala land, correct, Lala Land? 93 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: Okay, listen, Ollie, thank you.
