John,
By now you've probably heard the news.
An Albanese Labor Government will back net zero emissions by 2050.
It means Australia would only emit as much greenhouse gas as we can absorb.
It's a common sense idea.
All Australian states and territories back it. Businesses like AGL, BHP, BP, Qantas and Telstra are backing it too. And countries like Canada, France and Germany, and conservative leaders like Boris Johnson, are some of its biggest supporters.
But instead of joining with the rest of the world and becoming a leader on climate action and job creation, we have a Federal Government that is refusing to even follow. Australia is being left behind.
The climate wars have seen a decade wasted in this country when it should have been a decade won.
We should be a clean energy superpower, harnessing the wind and sun to spark a new manufacturing boom and power generations of jobs. Lower energy prices, lower emissions, more jobs.
These are the opportunities that lie before us, but only if we seize them – together.
I need your help to get our message out there so please – share this video and spread the word.
Thanks for your support.
Albo
