Are the climate wars winding down? - a podcast by ABC Radio

Australia's never been closer to adopting a net zero by 2050 target.

The Prime Minister Scott Morrison's slow shift in rhetoric is now culminating in a very public showdown with his Coalition partners, the Nationals.

Some Nationals cabinet members have spoken out against such a change, and the party's leader, Barnaby Joyce has also chimed in, pointing to the current energy shortage in the UK and Europe to illustrate his concerns about a shift away from fossil fuels.

Today on the Signal, is the UK's energy mess really a window into Australia's net zero future?

And will the Nationals ultimately get on board?
