What is absolutely clear is that Australia is paying the price for a decade of delinquency. There were efforts by the previous government. Mr Taylor said, 'The coalition's policy to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 is a responsible and balanced plan.' Senator Kovacic said that, under the previous Liberal government, Australia committed to reaching zero by 2050. Ms Ley said, 'We have a technology agnostic approach to reaching zero by 2050.' It goes on and on. Senator Smith was over there saying the coalition is committed to transitioning to net zero.
