Warwick McKibbin has defended the Australian Government’s climate change policy. McKibbin, the head of the Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis at Australian National University’s Crawford School of Public Policy, said on 30 August 2015 that the Government’s emissions reduction target of at least 26 per cent from 2005 levels by 2030 would result in gross domestic product being 0.6 per cent smaller than if there were no target.
