To the Leader of the Opposition Anthony Albanese, As you and the Australian Labor Party move closer to announcing the new climate policy you will bring to the federal election, I urge you to be strong, show leadership and take serious action on climate change to bring Australia in from the cold. What this means in a nutshell is committing to at least halve Australia’s climate pollution this decade and locking in the policies to get us there. Halving climate pollution this decade means serious action helping to reduce extreme drought, heatwaves, bushfires and natural disasters – and repositioning and boosting our economy and job creation for today and tomorrow. Here are 5 crucial reasons why you must commit to at least halving climate pollution this decade: 1. Action to cut climate emissions this decade is good for Australian industries, jobs and communities and is practical through the accelerated deployment of renewable energy and renewable powered industries, exports and transport. Climate action is responsible. 2. Action this decade will add billions to Australia’s economy through clean industries and create hundreds of thousands of new jobs. Insufficient action will cost Australia billions, risk jobs and make climate fuelled disasters more deadly. Insufficient action is irresponsible. 3. Responsible climate action this decade would accelerate ready-now climate solutions with a target to at least halve Australia’s emissions by 2030, based on 2005 levels, aligning with our trading partners and meeting international obligations. 4. Australia’s current emissions targets and trajectories are inadequate, risk penalties from trading partners, position Australia as a global climate laggard and expose Australians to worse climate damage through droughts, heatwaves and fires. 5. A majority of Australians support halving emissions by 2030 and Australian businesses support greater action this decade. I hope you can show me and all Australian people the strong leadership we demand.
