Report says SUVs increasing Australia's emissions

A new report by the Australia Institute has revealed the popularity of fuel-guzzling SUVs in Australia is turbocharging emissions - while other nations are reducing them.

Experts are calling for urgent action - warning the trend could make it difficult for the Albanese government to meet its emissions reduction target.
