The emissions reduction fund was deeply flawed – and no rebranding will change this

The Coalition government has today released its climate policy for the upcoming election.

‘We need to do so much more than accounting
tricks and the direct purchase of spurious abatement’.

Not much could have been expected from the government given that the prime minister has only been in the role six months, and not much was delivered.

There is not a lot of detail around the total package, the $3.5bn cash splash. What we have is enough to make clear that this is not the climate policy solution that the government thinks it is.
