‘It will wreck the Australian economy’: Coalition advised to ‘dump’ net zero targets
IPA Senior Fellow and Chief Economist Adam Creighton claims if the Coalition decides to keep its net zero emissions target it will “wreck the Australian economy”.
“The reality is, net zero might sound a nice idea, but it’s an extraordinarily huge tax on the Australian economy,” Mr Creighton told Sky News host Sharri Markson.
“It’s putting up energy bills.
“I think Chris Bowen has made a … very cynical, political judgement that in the next three years it’s still going to be popular.
“I would say to the Coalition should dump it now and should get ahead of public opinion.”
