Shadow Education Minister Tanya Plibersek says all of Labor’s policies are up for review but maintains she is for an “ambitious pollution reduction target”. Labor's 2030 carbon emissions target could be scrapped with concerns an Albanese government would not have time to achieve the desired target if they were elected in 2022.
The contentious target cut of 45 per cent should be changed to focus on a net zero emissions target for 2050, according to the Australian. “It’s really the government that needs to be answering some questions about what’s happening with climate change policy… we are on the 15th or 16th version of their energy policy and we continue to see billions of dollars of tax payers money spent, despite the fact that pollution continues to rise,” she said.

tanya_plibersek And of course the member for Hunter is talking up a carbon tax, so we are getting a pretty good idea of what Labor's climate policy will look like. It is also becoming clear that Labor will be looking at winding back border protection.
tanya_plibersek TP almost as silly as KK
tanya_plibersek And they will lose again
tanya_plibersek
tanya_plibersek CO2 is life. Its not bloody pollution
tanya_plibersek Anyone can be 'ambitious' but are the policies going to drive up electricity prices? Are you going to stop or shut down Coal mining, Coal generation? Jobs will go and you have nothing to replace it. Labor as usual getting into the same as Greens: unviable Policies for naive minds
tanya_plibersek This woman has done ZERO since she was first elected to parliament. She and the rest of Labor are a joke
tanya_plibersek FFS. CO2 is NOT pollution. Labor obviously wants to stay in perpetual opposition
tanya_plibersek Define pollution Tanya. Please because your ouw green policies cause pollution
tanya_plibersek Education and pollution mentioned in the same tweet. Of course all that hot air from teachers and the shadow education person is not improving NAPLAN scores but is contributing to pollution.
tanya_plibersek Ambition is good, fanaticalism is doom. Ambition has to include reality & reality needs to include options that may soften ambition. The message is small steps often work much better than huge strides.
tanya_plibersek Remove tanya.. there's your pollutant reduction.
tanya_plibersek

tanya_plibersek Shorten took labour beyond the left into Marxist revolutionary communism. Sounds like Tanya wants more time in opposition.
tanya_plibersek If she wants a pollution reduction target then she should resign and take the rest of the clueless labor frontbench with her.
tanya_plibersek In other words, we have no standards or principles other than it's your fault. And the principle that you have to pay
