flag Western Australia altered a Deloitte gas report to downplay climate risks and boost net zero claims, sparking criticism over transparency and accuracy.

flag Western Australia’s government is under scrutiny for allegedly altering a Deloitte report on gas decarbonisation to downplay climate risks and support its net zero claims. flag The original 2024 draft warned that gas could hinder decarbonisation and projected rising Asian demand, but the final 2025 version removed key risks, claimed gas demand would double, and suggested exports would peak decades later than global averages. flag Critics, including environmental advocates, called the changes misleading and politically motivated, arguing that gas combustion contributes to global emissions regardless of location. flag The report’s delayed public release until November 2025 and lack of explanation have further fueled concerns about transparency in energy policy.
