Australia nears 2030 emissions target but falls short on 2035 goals, with transport emissions rising and calls for faster climate action.
Australia is on track to cut emissions 42% below 2005 levels by 2030, nearing its 43% target, but projections show it will only achieve a 48% reduction by 2035—well short of the 62-70% goal.
While renewable energy use rose to 41.2% in the electricity sector, driving a 3.3% drop in power emissions, transport emissions are rising and could become the largest source.
Experts and the Climate Change Authority warn emissions cuts must at least double to meet targets, urging faster renewable deployment, electric vehicle adoption, and stronger environmental safeguards.
The government plans to extend clean energy incentives and streamline approvals, but critics say new environmental rules lack a climate trigger to block high-emission projects.
Australia se acerca al objetivo de emisiones de 2030, pero no alcanza los objetivos de 2035, con el aumento de las emisiones de transporte y los llamamientos a una acción climática más rápida.
