Nationals' Net Zero Backflip
The Nationals' decision to abandon their net zero position will have costly consequences for regional communities and farmers affected by climate disasters.
Abandoning net zero means abandoning a safer future for Australians. It means worsening, climate-driven floods, fires and heatwaves. Communities will pay a high price, particularly in the regions.
According to Climate Council Research, abandoning net zero would lead to severe consequences, including:
- worsening climate-driven floods, fires, and heatwaves
- billions of dollars in damage to farmers and regional towns
- soaring insurance premiums, recovery bills, and freight costs
Climate Council CEO Amanda McKenzie emphasized that the Nationals must explain how they will pay for the escalating disaster costs in regional communities.
