Developments in Australia's tepid climate policy, and a call to collective action

Friday, 26 September 2025 - 10:00am to 10:30am

Annika Reynolds, National Climate Policy Advisor with the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF), talks about some important recent developments in Australia's climate policy. These include approval for Woodside to extend the life of its North West shelf gas project by 40 years, the release of the national Climate Risk Assessment report, and the setting of Australia's emissions reduction target for 2035.

At this point, our federal government is falling short of policies and decisions to avert the worst climate catastrophe for future generations. It is time for the government to act on the scientific evidence, and for us to take collective action to hold it to account.
