"I really can't stress that enough."

23.01.2022 Last night we attended the 2016 Banksia Awards as a finalist in the Communications for Change category for our zero emissions study Pathways to Deep Decarbonisation in 2050.

Well done to all the 2016 finalists and winners!

13.01.2022 "If the world's most elite athletes need to be protected from climate change, what about the rest of us?" A study from the University of Auckland has found by 2085 almost 90 per cent of the large cities in the Northern Hemisphere will be so affected by climate change, the temperature and humidity will be too high to safely run a marathon in summer.

13.01.2022 Today the Paris Agreement comes into force. The Agreement aims to keep the global average temperature to well below 2C.

07.01.2022 The cheapest way for Australia to cut greenhouse gas emissions is to put a cap on car emissions, says ClimateWorks' Head of Implementation Scott Ferraro in an Op-Ed published in The Conversation today. It would be so cheap, in fact, that it would save drivers money.

We've done it before, there's no reason why we can't do it this time."

05.01.2022 #CWNYC There has been a convergence of political, technological and environmental understanding: a low-carbon economy is no longer a trade-off or threat. Its an opportunity.
