Detailed description of the resource
In Australia, capital cities are increasingly stepping forward to offer leadership on greenhouse gas abatement to a degree not evident at the national level nor in many states and territories. In 2016, over 82% of all Australian local governments had zero emissions targets for their operations, while 18% had similar targets for their communities. This paper analyses the carbon targets, strategies, outcomes, and policies and measures that are being used by each of Australia’s capital cities.
