Scott Morrison’s secret climate weapon

7am

About this episode

The federal government has finally released the modelling underpinning its plan to reach net zero emissions by 2050.


According to the Prime Minister, the economic impact of the plan won’t be that significant. But at the last election Scott Morrison had a very different position when he was opposing Labor’s emissions reduction policy.


Today, national correspondent for The Saturday Paper Mike Seccombe on the documents that reveal who’s behind the federal government’s climate modelling - and what it tells us about the way science is being spun for political purposes.
