Western Australia Accused of Undermining Federal Climate Targets as New Evidence Emerges

随着新证据浮现，西澳大利亚州被指责破坏联邦气候目标

Fresh revelations have intensified scrutiny of Western Australia's climate record, raising urgent questions about whether the state is jeopardising Australia's federal climate targets.

新的披露内容加剧了对西澳州气候记录的审查，并引发了关于该州是否正在危害澳大利亚联邦气候目标的迫切疑问。

Documents obtained through freedom of information laws suggest that the Western Australian government possesses internal advice contradicting its public stance on fossil fuel exports.

通过信息自由法取得的文件显示，西澳洲政府拥有的内部建议与其在化石燃料出口上的公开立场相矛盾。

Premier Roger Cook has consistently argued that expanding the state's gas industry benefits the global climate by displacing coal consumption across Asia.

州长罗杰·库克一贯主张，扩张该州的天然气产业能通过取代整个亚洲的煤炭消耗，进而对全球气候产生益处。

However, the disclosed documents indicate that Western Australian gas exports may actually be impeding Asia's transition to renewable energy sources.

然而，披露的文件显示，西澳大利亚州的天然气出口实际上可能正在阻碍亚洲向可再生能源的转型。

The political tension surrounding this issue has deepened considerably in recent weeks.

围绕这一议题的政治紧张局势在最近几周已显著加剧。

According to the latest available data, annual emissions from the resource-rich state rose by approximately four percent.

根据最新可用数据，这个资源丰富的州（西澳大利亚州）的年度排放量增长了约百分之四。

Since 2005, Western Australia's greenhouse gas output has surged by seventeen percent, whereas every other Australian state has achieved measurable reductions.

自 2005 年以来，西澳大利亚州的温室气体排放量已激增了百分之十七，而澳大利亚其他各州都实现了可衡量的减排。

The growth is attributed predominantly to the dramatic expansion of the liquefied natural gas export sector.

这种增长主要归因于液化天然气出口部门的剧烈扩张。

Critics have emphasised that these figures represent a significant environmental risk to the nation's overall decarbonisation strategy.

批评人士强调，这些数据代表了对该国整体脱碳战略的重大环境风险。

Perhaps most controversially, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and several cabinet members have given implicit support to Western Australia's approach.

或许最具争议的是，总理安东尼·阿尔巴尼斯和几位内阁成员对西澳大利亚州的作法给予了隐晦的支持。

#12

Albanese has notably refrained from publicly challenging Premier Cook's pro-gas stance, despite mounting evidence that the federal policy framework is being undermined.

尽管有越来越多证据表明联邦政策框架正受到削弱，阿尔巴尼斯显然克制住自己，没有公开挑战罗杰·库克州长的支持天然气立场。

Were the prime minister to confront Western Australia directly, it could provoke a political backlash in a state where Labor holds considerable electoral support.

倘若总理直接对抗西澳大利亚州，可能会在工党拥有相当大选民支持度的州引发政治反弹。

#14

Nevertheless, analysts have cautioned that without greater accountability from all states, Australia's legislated emission reduction commitments risk becoming unattainable.

尽管如此，分析人士警告说，如果各州不加强问责，澳大利亚法定的减排承诺将面临无法实现的风险。

#15

Two specific developments reported last week have further undermined the credibility of Western Australia's climate pledges.

上周报道的两项具体进展进一步削弱了西澳州气候承诺的可信度。

#16

The state government was reportedly planning to abandon a long-standing emissions reduction commitment, a move that drew immediate condemnation from environmental organisations.

据报道，该州政府正计划放弃一项长期的减排承诺，此举立即引发了环保组织的谴责。

Should this trend continue unchecked, the gap between Australia's stated ambitions and its actual trajectory will only widen.

如果这一趋势在未受遏制的情况下持续下去，澳大利亚既定的抱负与其实际发展轨迹之间的差距只会进一步扩大。

#18

The question now confronting Canberra is whether federal leadership on climate can coexist with deference to a state whose economic model depends heavily on fossil fuel extraction.

堪培拉目前面临的问题是，联邦在气候议题上的领导地位，是否能与对一个经济模式严重依赖化石燃料开采的州所表现出的顺从共存。
