A Coalition Government will take direct action to reduce Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions by five percent by 2020.

This can be achieved without Kevin Rudd’s great big tax on everything that will increase the costs of living for Australian families, penalise Australian businesses and destroy jobs.

The Coalition’s climate action policy provides incentives for Australian families and businesses to reduce their carbon emissions and focuses on meaningful, effective and direct action to improve Australia’s environment.

In contrast to the Government’s approach, the Coalition’s policy includes using our comparative advantages as a nation: soil and sun – both of which we have in abundance.

The Coalition’s direct action plan is careful, costed and capped – reducing emissions without a tax on everything. Click to download the policy (Policy PDF).
