Labor won't be supporting this motion. We do support strong action on climate change to create jobs, reduce emissions and improve affordability and reliability. As the Greens know, science based targets should be determined by a transparent, government led process that respects the views of experts and the community. The Morrison government has refused to initiate such a process because it is hostage to the climate deniers in its ranks. Labor is the only party of government that will take the science of climate change seriously.
