The Climate Change (National Framework for Adaptation and Mitigation) Bill 2020 was introduced into Federal Parliament by independent MP Zali Steggall in November 2020. The proposed Act would mandate: (1) a national climate risk assessment; (2) a national adaptation program; (3) a legislated net-zero target by 2050; and (4) the establishment of an independent Climate Change Commission. The Australian Government has been under increasing pressure to legislate a net zero by 2050 target in line with the European Union and other developed economies.
