The Coalition’s climate policies have been under review since its drubbing at the last election.

But now that the Nationals have struck first, deciding to abandon a commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050, there’s big pressure on Sussan Ley’s leadership of the Liberal Party.

Will the Liberals follow their Coalition partner? And what would it mean for their electoral prospects and the signal it sends about the two parties’ enthusiasm for climate action?

Today, Michelle Grattan, the chief political correspondent at The Conversation, on the history of the Coalition’s climate policy and what happens next.
