One of Australia’s largest conservation organisations has awarded the federal Coalition just one out of 100 for its environment and climate change policies – the lowest score it has given the Liberal and National parties in more than 20 years of compiling pre-election scorecards.
Labor scraped through with a pass – on 54% – while the Greens achieved 98%, according to the scorecard, which ranked the major parties and key independents on their policies for protecting nature, championing renewable energy, and rejecting nuclear and fossil fuels.
As a Greens voter, I am bemused they scored that high, must be a low bar, which is scary considering how low the two main parties ranked.
