Jane Hume examines the ‘true cost’ of Labor’s green dream

Shadow Finance Minister Jane Hume says Australians across the country are “committed” to a net zero emissions future. The Australian government will not be signing a new agreement on civil nuclear reactor collaboration which was signed by the US and the UK at COP29. “We all want to see a cleaner and greener energy system but the question is: at what cost?” Ms Hume said. “Our concern is that Australians are facing rising bills ... and increasing burden to the taxpayer and an increasingly unstable electricity grid.”
