Australia’s emissions are showing early signs of returning to higher levels, as Covid-19 related travel restrictions and the impacts of drought both begin to lift, leading to a rise in emissions in the third quarter of 2020.
According to updated quarterly emissions data published by the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources on Friday, Australia’s annual emissions fell 4.4 per cent during the year ending September 2020, as a result of continued falls in emissions in the electricity sector (down 4.0 per cent) and a substantial fall in transport emissions as a result of Covid-19 related travel restrictions (down 10.2 per cent).
