The Turnbull government's review of climate change policies
has confirmed Australia is on track to reduce emissions by 5 per cent
below 2000 levels as part of the Paris agreement, but faces a tough task
reaching its goal of a 26-28 per cent reduction by 2030.
The review, released on Tuesday, outlines Australia's international and national efforts to address climate change, including contributions to several major projects and initiatives, research and collaboration with global partners and the integration of climate change action through overseas aid.
