Business Council of Australia reverses position, calling for ambitious short-term carbon emissions reduction target

The nation's business community is urging the government to adopt a far more ambitious short-term carbon emissions reduction target, if the nation is to have any chance of reaching net zero by 2050.

The intervention comes as the Liberal and National parties negotiate over a net-zero by 2050 target, with warnings from Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce that any transition to a cleaner economy cannot come at the expense of industries in regional Australia. The BCA, which represents some of Australia's highest emitters such as energy and mining companies, noted it was areas such as the electricity sector that would have to do the heavy lifting.

So ScottMorrisonMP has told the BCAcomau to flip positions like he has to help with the upcoming election

Business community is urging the government to adopt a far more ambitious short-term carbon emissions. The business and consumers are leading the way, with the government dragging its feet. So much for leadership.
