Australians have shown overwhelming support for Prime Minister Kevin Rudd to take the next steps in the fight against climate change by cutting Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions and phasing out electricity generation from coal-fired power stations in the next three years, a Newspoll survey has found.

Commissioned by Greenpeace, the poll reveals that 86% of Australians support Mr Rudd introducing new policies that will ensure Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions begin to decrease within the next three years. 77% said the government should begin phasing out existing coal-fired power stations and replacing them with renewable energy generation by 2010. When asked about Australia’s export coal industry, 73% of Australians said coal exports should be capped or reduced.
