But every Australian is paying the price. In Parliament, my Private Member’s Motion highlighted the growing economic costs of climate change. In 2025, extreme weather caused $4.8 billion in insured losses, while home insurance premiums have risen 51% over five years. Yet both the Government and Coalition are backing weaker building standards, leaving Australians exposed to greater risks and costs. The cheapest home is one you only have to build once. Every dollar invested in climate resilience can save up to $11 in disaster recovery costs. I’m calling for stronger building standards, a national climate adaptation plan and greater investment in resilience to protect Australian homes, communities and our economy.
