Plus she said she was responsible for everything that mattered in climate action, getting to net zero by 2050. Were we to get the impression she had changed the LNP climate policy all by herself.

Electrify Everything Loan Scheme (EELS)
Rewiring Australia is on a mission to electrify everything as it is the fastest way to address the climate crisis while significantly reducing household energy bills. We have just released a key part ...
Pink H2 - essential to our survival? Sounds so harmless.
If we could power every house with our own energy, store it, drive with it and run our efficient electric appliance perhaps we wouldn't need any pink electrons!

The mask is off: Dutton's Liberals are no party of liberalism
In a decade, the Liberals have gone from supporting the rights of bigots to wanting to deport them. What happened? It's not just Dutton.
"The right has shifted almost monolithically away from values once prized by both liberals and conservatives, like respect for institutions, evidence-based policymaking and the rule of law." @keanebernard.bsky.social on the death of liberalism under Dutton www.crikey.com.au/2025/03/19/p...

Clearly nuclear is not the way to go says Carina, but what about Labor's 28 extra coal & gas approvals.
Community batteries? Why not extend solar support to household batteries?
