Paul takes a leading role in climate, energy and water initiatives. He has introduced a range of legislative initiatives into the Parliament, including legislation for renewable energy targets, water conservation targets, solar hot water systems, and emissions controls for power stations.

Paul supports community enterprise and innovation in agro-forestry, renewable energy, water conservation, regional land use planning, and native forest conservation in the south west region.

The 6 September 2008 snap election did not bring a sufficient quota for Paul Llewellyn, meaning he will lose his seat when the new Legislative Council convenes on 22 May 2009.
