Skilled in Sixty: What Australia’s New Emissions Targets Mean for Tourism Businesses

An initiative of the Tourism Industry Council Tasmania, Skilled in Sixty is a webinar series designed to deliver 60-minute, bite-sized information sessions on topics that matter to Tassie tourism operators. 

The Australian Government has just announced new 2035 emissions reduction targets of 62–70% below 2005 levels. But what does this actually mean for tourism businesses in Tasmania?

In this 60-minute Skilled in Sixty webinar, Lauren Cameron – our Carbon & Sustainability Advisor - will break down the targets in clear, simple terms and explore the opportunities and challenges they present for our industry. Participants will walk away with practical tips on how to align their business with national and state priorities, manage emerging expectations from visitors, and make confident decisions that reduce emissions and boost resilience.

In this session, we’ll cover:

• Why emissions targets matter for Tasmania’s tourism industry

• What might change for tourism operators over the next decade (policies, reporting, visitor expectations)

• Opportunities for businesses that adapt early

• Steps to measure and reduce emissions

• Funding, grants, and support programs available to help you on the journey

There will be time for Q&A at the end of the presentation.
