Abstract
The Western Australian (WA) Government is committed to building the climate resilience of the agriculture industry. The WA Climate Change Policy underscores this commitment to adapting to climate change and working with all sectors of the economy to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
Achieving climate resilience requires both adaptation and the mitigation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions which accelerate climate change.
The Sectoral Emissions Reduction Strategies (SERS) are a core commitment of the Western Australian Climate Policy. These will provide robust and credible emissions reduction pathways across sectors for the whole of WA. Development of the SERS, announced in December 2021, will involve consultation with industry, business, research institutions and other key stakeholders.
The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) is working with industry and producers to develop emissions reduction strategies and solutions for the agriculture sector as part of the Western Australian Government’s transition to net zero emissions.
