POCOCK, David

The vast majority of Canberrans believe the federal government must do more. Major firms like Deloitte Access Economics tell us we are at a critical turning point: the decisions we make right now could add $680 billion and over 250,000 jobs to the economy by 2070. But if we don’t pursue climate action, they predict we’ll lose $3.4 trillion and over 880,000 jobs. Climate action is no longer a cost; it’s an opportunity we can’t afford to miss. The ACT is a leader on climate action. I think it’s time we had two senators showing that leadership at a federal level.
