Nearly half of The Australian Financial Review readers support the Albanese government’s plans to introduce a tradable carbon credits scheme requiring the country’s largest polluters to gradually reduce emissions.

readers support the Albanese government’s plans to introduce a tradable carbon credits scheme requiring the country’s largest polluters to gradually reduce emissions.

Nineteen per cent of respondents believed companies should not be able to buy credits to escape reducing emissions.

“Presenting the issue as a ‘concept’ rather than a fully detailed scheme that embodies the concept removes any potential for those that are fundamentally opposed to any form of First Nations recognition using ‘the detail’ in order to argue against the concept,” one reader said.
