Australia is ideally placed to take advantage of the transition to clean energy - our large continent and variety of renewable sources ensures that we can generate far more energy than we need, to export clean energy and energy intensive products to the world.
Leadership and collaboration with the international community are required in order to reduce greenhouse concentrations globally.
We support:
- Setting an 800% renewable energy target, and establish a national grid to distribute renewable energy.
- Build and incentivise clean energy export markets, and disincentivise greenhouse-intensive imports and products.
- Investing in research and development, to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels, and make Australia the global leader in clean technology.

Climate Emergency
For decades the need for reducing carbon emissions has been known. Now, we have reached the point of emergency. We have passed any point that could be regarded as safe, and must not only reduce emissions to zero, but also draw down existing greenhouse gases to reduce their overall concentrations. Preventing catastrophe will require action across all sectors of the world’s economies, and will require decisive action to take advantage of all options still open to us.
