Australia may follow New Zealand in excluding the agriculture sector in its efforts to achieve a net-zero emissions target by 2050. 

 

According to Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack, he is not worried about what might happen in 30 years time. His main focus being on getting Australia back on its feet after a challenging year.

 

Regional Australia has been the victim of drought, bushfires, flood and Covid-nineteen and McCormack does not want to hurt them in any way shape or form just to get a target for climate in 2050.
