Carbon Market Institute chief executive John Connor said the Nationals should use the opportunity to push for a “well-considered further evolution” of Australia’s carbon market policies.
“The right policies and ambition, carbon farming can support the development by 2030 of over 20,000 jobs and over $20 billion in carbon project revenue, most of which would be delivered to regional Australia,” Mr Connor said.
“With the right policies, and a laser-like focus on integrity, our carbon farming industry can also become a major export industry of carbon reduction credits and expertise to a world increasingly demanding them.”
