“There’s no sense in signing up to targets you don’t have any prospect of achieving,” he said, in reference to the government’s 2030 target. “I’m really concerned about the impact of this on business confidence and business investment,” she told this masthead.“This isn’t just a disaster for the environment, this is an economic disaster that would deliver long-term problems.”
She said abandoning the 2030 target while focusing on nuclear power would effectively stall investment now under way nationally in renewables and critical minerals. “The choice for those who voted out Liberals to elect independents will be very clear at the next election – do you want positive, forward-focused, reasoned and collaborative policymakers or do you want to return to the politics of fear where everything from climate to immigration is weaponised?”
Liberal frontbencher David Coleman said the Coalition would make clear its emissions policy by the next election, which is expected in May next year.
