Everyday Australians on Net Zero: A Nation Divided?
Australians' Views on Net Zero Vary Widely Across Australia, understanding of the term "net zero" and its implications varies greatly, according to a recent Australian Community Media (ACM) survey. The survey, conducted through street interviews, captured a diverse range of opinions on the climate change policy. In Wagga Wagga, NSW, Dianne expressed skepticism, stating, "The thing that gets to me is the fact that I don't believe that humans can rectify climate change." In contrast, Ellie-Marie from the Hunter region, NSW, highlighted the policy's importance in mitigating climate change impacts, emphasizing the need for action to prevent frequent and severe flooding events. The video also includes perspectives from individuals in Wodonga, VIC, Canberra, ACT, Latrobe, TAS, and Warrnambool, VIC, illustrating the wide range of public awareness and concern about net zero emissions in Australia.
