Former UN climate chief urges Australia to set ‘prosperity’ target of cutting emissions by 75% by 2035 – ‘Would increase the country’s chance of winning rights to host Cop31 in 2026’
The intervention by Christiana Figueres, an architect of the 2015 Paris agreement when she was the executive secretary of the UN framework convention on climate change, comes before discussions about Australia’s commitment, due to be announced next month...
Figueres said setting a target of a 75% or more reduction would be “not a burden”, but instead be “Australia’s ticket into the prosperity of the future”. She suggested the ambitious goal would increase Australia’s chance to win the rights to host a major UN climate summit in Adelaide in November 2026.

Second prize: Host COP31 *and* COP32
I bet the Aussies just can’t wait to see all those executive jets arrive.
They really mean the good citizens of Australia have to pay for these wasteful, idealistic 'climate' junkies...
Pathetic.
DJ - Third prize - implement one of the resolutions.
Peter - yes, a grifters and nutters jamboree is just what they need to raise the spirits.
Scrobs - unless they can get out of it. A hefty tax on EVs would probably help there.
