Australia fails the Pacific with weak climate target
18 September, 2025 Canberra – The Australian government today announced their updated Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), pledging to cut emissions by 62-70% by 2035 and failing to commit to phase out fossil fuels. The target is incompatible with keeping global heating below 1.5°C and undermines its bid to co-host COP31 with Pacific nations. Fenton Lutunatabua, 350.org Deputy Head of Regions says, “Anything less than a 75% cut this decade backed by a plan to phase out coal, oil and gas is not a climate plan, it’s a denial of climate justice. Pacific peoples are already living the losses that come…

New analysis: Australia can power past 70% and should aim to reach net zero sooner
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASETHURSDAY 18 SEPTEMBER, 2025 NEW ANALYSIS from the Climate Council shows that powering past 70% by 2035 will mean we should reach net zero sooner, protect Australians from worsening climate impacts and deliver major economic benefits. Climate Council Analysis: If we cut climate pollution by 70% by 2035 and maintained this rate of progress we would reach net zero by 2040. This linear trajectory would reduce Australia’s climate pollution by 1,409 million tonnes by 2050, a significant contribution to reducing the severity of climate impacts. Achieving a stronger target of 70% and above would unlock investment and greater…
