Taking action on climate change

The Climate Change (Net Zero Future) Act 2023

The NSW Government has legislated whole-of-government climate action in the Climate Change (Net Zero Future) Act 2023. This legislation signals our commitment to a resilient, net zero future and sets out a clear path to deliver net zero by 2050.

Net Zero Plan

The Net Zero Plan Stage 1: 2020–2030 is the foundation for NSW’s action on climate change and goal to reduce our emissions by 70% by 2035 and reach net zero emissions by 2050. Find out more about the Net Zero Plan and how NSW is taking action on climate change.

NSW climate change policy

The NSW Climate Change Policy Framework outlines our long-term objectives to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and to make NSW more resilient to a changing climate.

This policy framework builds on our strong track record of expanding clean energy, helping households and businesses reduce their bills by saving energy and preparing for the impacts of climate change.

It guides the NSW Government's policy and programs.
