The facts are that the Greens opposed the ETS. That was a major turning point in the climate change debate in Australia. It's gone nowhere from that point and it gave the Libs a great wedge which with Murdoch's reach allowed Abbott and now Morrison to make Australia the global bad boys of climate change.
The Greens were either not forward thinking enough to realise what blocking the ETS would do, or they saw some political gain by doing it. Either way, when it comes to Australia and tackling climate change, the Greens have to accept blame for significant the role they played in keeping Australia where it is now
