AUSTRALIA—The Greens have dropped their demand for a climate trigger to be incorporated in the government’s stalled Nature Positive legislation, indicating they are now prepared to pass the bills in return for an Australia-wide ban on native forest logging alone. The party has previously refused to support Labor’s legislation, insisting that both a climate trigger and a forest-logging ban must be included. But in the lead-up to the final parliamentary sitting week of the year – and after faring worse than they anticipated in the Australian Capital Territory and Queensland elections – the Greens’ key Senate negotiators are to announce a compromise position to try to restart negotiations with the government. With the Coalition and some crossbenchers continuing to oppose them, the government cannot get the bills passed without Greens support. The Greens Senate leader, Sarah Hanson-Young, accused the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, of bowing to pressure from the resources sector in his refusal to countenance a climate trigger.
