Australian voters are left in the dark on climate targets as they head to the ballot box | Tony Wood

Australia has pledged to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 43% by the end of the decade .

Under the landmark Paris deal, Australia has cut emissions from 2005 levels.

Ted O'Brien said the Coalition would review the target if it wins office.

O’Brien faced off against the climate change and energy minister, Chris Bowen , at a debate in Canberra on Thursday .

At the moment, the Coalition appears to be relying on its controversial nuclear power plan to meet the bipartisan goal of net zero emissions by 2050 .

But analysts have warned the plan will lead to much more emissions between now and then.

Meanwhile, there is far more work to be done outside the energy sector in agriculture, transport, industry and more to meet Australia ’s climate commitments.
