Peter Dutton’s revelation his party would not set an emissions reduction target for 2030 before the next election has been decried an “extraordinary abandonment” of climate policy as Greens leader Adam Bandt pilloried the PM’s 'crocodile tears' on Paris targets.
The political row over emissions targets has intensified after Greens leader Adam Bandt called out Anthony Albanese ’s “crocodile tears” on 2030 targets while the PM doubled down on claims the Coalition would abandon the Paris Agreement .
“His nuclear fantasy will result in higher power prices and more unstable energy grid and rising emissions,” he said. But Mr Albanese’s attack on the Coalition leader followed him being on the defensive against Greens leader Adam Bandt who slammed the PM’s “crocodile tears”. Mr Bandt said limiting global warming to less than two degrees was critical as failure to reduce warming meant climate change could become “runaway”.
