Australia has the highest number of solar panels per capita in the world. Australia has extremely high uptake on EV's given the cheap solar.

Australia is about as serious as you get in terms of climate action without being unreasonable. We need power, you can't switch off coal overnight. We also need the country to remain afloat, we cannot turn off all natural resource exports either.
