Coalition scores just 1/100 points for environment and climate policies from conservation organisation | Environment

In a recent scorecard by the Australian Conservation Foundation, the federal Coalition received a dismal score of 1 out of 100 for its environmental and climate policies, the lowest in over 20 years, while Labor scored 54% and the Greens achieved 98%. The Coalition’s score reflects its support for nuclear and fossil fuel industries, whereas Labor’s score improved due to renewable energy initiatives but was penalized for weakening nature protections and approving new fossil fuel projects. Experts emphasized that both major parties need significant reforms to address climate action and biodiversity protection, with calls for an end to fossil fuel subsidies.
