Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has pledged to abandon Labor’s 2030 climate target in exchange for nuclear power, a move criticized by Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen and other political figures. Critics argue that Dutton’s decision would be disastrous for power prices, families, and businesses. The Nationals leader David Littleproud confirmed that the Coalition would not tear up Australia’s commitment to the Paris Agreement but claimed the Albanese government would fall short of its climate targets. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has accused Dutton of being worse than former Prime Minister Scott Morrison on climate change. James Ashby and Hollie Hughes have expressed doubts about meeting the Paris Accord targets by 2030. Shadow Climate Change and Energy Minister Ted O’Brien criticized the Albanese government for not lowering emissions since taking office.
