The Agreement specifies a review of nonsensical emission reduction targets every five years, and the government could change its mind in the period 2020-21 if it came to its senses and did a few sums on the cost of achieving zero emissions.
The wildest goals come from Extinction Rebellion: zero emissions by 2025. To achieve this, and retain an ASSURED electricity supply, would require Australia to build 33 nuclear power plants each year from now on.
Greens and the Conservation Council on zero emissions by 2040. 8.5 nuclear plants per year.
Labor Party, zero emissions by 2050, 5.5 nuclear plants per year.
Morrison Government: same as Labor thanks to Turnbull's dirty work before his demise. But, they could legitimately, in 2020-21, come to their senses and follow the US in getting out, and start repairing our economy.
