Energy policy of the Liberal Party of Australia

摘要

The Coalition will ensure that Australia reaches its target of a 5% reduction in CO_2 emissions by 2020. The Coalition will do this through both our continued support for the 20% Renewable Energy Target and our Direct Action plan. It is a simple, practical approach, which will not only address climate change but improve our environment. Direct Action provides incentives to those who reduce CO_2 emissions so that we can reach our 5% reduction target by 2020. While it encompasses programs to support the uptake of solar energy and the revegetation of our land, at its heart is an Emissions Reduction Fund to directly support emissions reduction activities - also called abatement.
