The Planning Institute of Australia has released a new report on the role of planning in emissions reduction - identifying the actions the planning industry needs to take to decarbonise key industry sectors.

The report considers the existing commitments in each state and territory, ideal planning policies, a high-level review of implementation, and the plausible pathway to net zero.

In particular, the report analyses industry policy across energy, manufacturing, built environment, transport and agriculture, forestry and land use.

The report also details the current modal shift of the transport sector and regional land use policies of the agriculture, forestry and land use sectors, which can be found in the Achieving Net Zero Report.
