Good to know she's tackling the Greens on the real issues, not trying to get a cheap laugh based on some half-arsed low-grade jokes.

Yes that sentence triggered the same reaction in me too. This is the kind of underhand, doublespeak, contradictory, bullshit rhetoric being used to gloss over the erosion of a stable climate. Neatly packed up and signed cursorily, "Department of Transport".

It is plain to see that the enormous Rosebank oil field is not compatible with a safe climate.
Every new oil field makes the world a more dangerous place, and Rosebank alone will create more pollution than the world’s 28 lowest income countries produce in a year.

I'd be interested to return to this question and sketch out a few other suggestions, but maybe this prompts a couple of ideas for now.

This is a slightly rushed thread on a few things that come to mind - helpful approaches tend to be scattered across many different disciplines which makes the subject interesting but hard-going!

Social/behavioural contagion is also intriguing. If two houses within a neighbourhood install a new solar PV system, the resulting peer influence prompts one additional household to do likewise.
