@AustralianLabor 2. Under current policy settings we won’t reach net zero until almost 2100. In fact, the Morrison government’s own modelling shows it would only be reducing emissions by a little more than a half by 2050.
3. Under the ALP plan, renewable energy (like solar and wind) is expected to power 82% of our energy needs by 2030 (up from 68% under a business as usual approach).
