The Morrison government has outlined a technological road map towards net zero emissions by 2050 that will require a contribution by every sector of the economy – including agriculture – and which relies in part on technologies that are not yet developed.
The government said its economic modelling, which it has not released, shows individuals will be $2000 better off, that gross national income will be 1.6 per cent higher and that a net 62,000 jobs will be created in regional mining and heavy industry.
