I thank Dr. Brennan. Before I bring in Senator O'Reilly again, I will make a related point. We spoke about carrots and sticks. I acknowledge that this may not be Dr. Brennan's area, so she should feel free not to go down this road, but she might have something to say about the carbon border adjustment mechanism, which the European Union is talking about. It seems to me that this is an effort essentially to shift levies onto materials and should favour more locally produced materials versus those that are carbon-intensive and that originate outside the European Union. I would be interested to hear any thoughts Dr. Brennan may have, perhaps speaking in a personal capacity. Would she like to say anything about that?
