The Greens in Australia are pushing for public ownership of green industries earmarked for tax benefits under the government's domestic manufacturing initiative. The party's leader, Adam Bandt, supports the development of green hydrogen and critical minerals sectors but seeks clarity on the legislation's details to prevent past mistakes. Bandt stresses the need for oversight to ensure that the push into these industries aligns with a ban on new coal and gas projects, aiming for a smooth transition to a sustainable energy future. By advocating for public ownership, the Greens aim to address concerns of corporate dominance and encourage high-quality job creation in the green energy sector.
