from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
A looming financial issue is being highlighted as the country works towards its next emissions budget. The Climate Commission is recommending greenhouse gas is limited by 134-million tonnes between 2036 and 2040. But Victoria University Adjunct Professor Adrian Macey told Mike Hosking that there's still a massive issue if we are going to meet our Paris pledge. He says a government between now and 2030 is going to have to find about $20-25 billion to buy carbon credits. Macey doesn't see any government being able to feasibly do this.
