The Opposition says it will remain committed to reaching net zero emissions by 2050 through reliance on gas and nuclear power. The government has criticised the announcement, arguing it risks Australia's international reputation and certainty for industry. Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen says a reduction of the target would be in breach of the Paris Agreement.
