Albanese to unveil Australia’s 2035 emissions reduction target following PNG trip and cabinet approvals on Thursday
– Prime Minister Albanese to announce Australia’s 2035 emissions target, aiming for 60-75% reduction from 2005 levels.
– States have set targets of 70-80%, while reactions from the Coalition reflect resistance to net zero commitments.
Australia currently risks missing its 43 per cent 2030 target, before aiming for net zero emissions by 2050, as committed under the Paris Agreement.
Energy Minister Chris Bowen stated the target will be “ambitious and achievable,” balanced by Treasury modelling.
State Targets
States like New South Wales and Queensland have set legislative targets of 70 and 75 per cent, respectively.
Meanwhile, Victoria’s target ranges from 75 to 80 per cent. Internationally, New Zealand targets a reduction of 51 to 55 per cent, and Canada aims for 45 to 50 per cent.
Reactions from the Coalition are anticipated, especially following resistance from members such as Andrew Hastie, who has threatened to dissent against the net zero agenda.
Barnaby Joyce has proposed a bill to repeal the 2050 commitment, while Sussan Ley awaits the outcome of a policy review, questioning the costs associated with meeting these targets.

AI stocks surge amid market shifts and spending warnings
AI sector drives economic growth; Meta adjusts strategy, Palantir’s valuation sparks questions, and Nvidia leads amid rising competition.
AI sector drives economic growth; Meta adjusts strategy, Palantir’s valuation sparks questions, and Nvidia leads amid rising competition.
The artificial intelligence sector continues to be a major driver of growth for both the U.S. and global economies. Companies at the forefront of AI innovation are influencing market trends and reshaping industries worldwide.
Meta’s stock has rebounded slightly following reports of potential cost-cutting measures and job reductions in its Reality Labs division. Investors are watching closely as the company adjusts its strategy to manage rising expenses and optimize innovation.
Palantir is trading at over 120 times forward sales and 180 times forward earnings, signaling investor confidence but also raising questions about valuation risks. Meanwhile, Nvidia maintains a market cap of $4.2 trillion as a leading AI chip supplier, yet competition is ramping up.
These moves highlight the growing tension between tech giants’ AI ambitions and the practical need to balance profits with heavy R&D spending.
Some analysts, however, warn that rapid growth may not be sustainable, with current levels of AI-related spending potentially overshooting realistic returns.

Analysts forecast $500 billion AI investment by 2026, transforming corporate spending priorities and enhancing economic productivity.
Analysts predict that artificial intelligence companies could invest over $500 billion in 2026, signaling a major shift in corporate spending priorities. This surge in capital allocation comes as businesses look to harness AI to drive growth and efficiency across multiple sectors.
Following strong third-quarter earnings, overall capital spending estimates for 2026 have been revised upward. However, investors are becoming more selective, focusing on companies that can clearly demonstrate revenue benefits from their AI investments, separating hype from tangible results.
AI adoption is expected to boost economic productivity, with significant investment already flowing into AI infrastructure such as semiconductors and data centres. The coming year could redefine how companies leverage technology to gain a competitive edge.
