Submission: Climate Change Commission draft advice on Emissions Budget 4 and the 2050 targets

Climate Change Commission draft advice on Emissions Budget 4 and the 2050 targets (31 May 2024)

The Bioenergy Association provided a submission on the Climate Change Commission work on the emissions reduction target and emissions budgets.  One of several points made to government was that the focus of the advice was too highly based on BAU whereas we have a large number of emerging opportunities for emissions reduction if we change to a “why can't we “attitude in the analysis.  Overall the Commission analysis tends to be too pessimistic by this focus on BAU.
