In Canberra, the road to climate policy has been paved with political casualties.
Former Prime Ministers John Howard, Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard and Malcolm Turnbull have all fallen victim to unpopular climate policies.
Now Scott Morrison has proposed his plan to achieve zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, praising his government's unique 'Australian' approach.
The government has made it clear that it will not legislate a new net zero target and claims the latest announcement is "based on existing policies" with unreleased modeling.
And despite international pressure, Australia's emission reduction commitments for the next decade will not increase.
It's still between 26 and 28 percent but the government hopes it will actually come to between 30 and 35.
