| Bill Shorten to announce bold renewable energy target at Labor conference. |
Fairfax Media has learnt that despite Labor's humiliating
2013 election defeat caused in part by voter contempt for its carbon tax, Mr
Shorten will use this weekend's ALP national conference in Melbourne to
announce the even more ambitious goal, dramatically beefing up Labor's
renewable energy target.
The policy shift is designed to recover green support,
sharpen the contrast with Prime Minister Tony Abbott over climate change and
make global warming the defining battleground of the next federal election
