Die land het egter nie sy teiken van ʼn 43-persent-verlaging in vrystellings volgens die Parys-verdrag gehaal nie, wat aardverwarming laer as 1,5-grade Celsius wil hou.

# Australia is the front runner to host next year’s United Nations Climate Change Conference COP31. This is despite the country’s 43-percent emission reduction target not being aligned with the Paris agreement, which aims to keep global warming to no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius. The government has also yet to announce its 2035 emissions […]
# Targeted action against invasive alien species could reduce the risk of the extinction of species in the European Union by up to 16-percent.
