For over a decade Australia’s clean energy policy stagnated during the climate wars, leaving the country effectively without an energy policy. While things have improved, we are still moving too slow. This episode will explore why. Most importantly, it will explore why our politicians are so unwilling to commit to an energy transition at the speed and scale that most Australian’s want. And why our fossil fuel industries remain so unstoppably powerful.
We sit down with Zali Steggall to find out more about Canberra’s politics of power and ask what are the carrots and sticks to drive change in the Australian energy network. What works best—positive incentives or tough regulation? What role do independents play in pushing for greater ambition? How do we differentiate between misleading ‘astro-turfing’ by vested interests who misinform and stir dissent in communities, and the genuine need to engage the public in the need for new forms of power generation and infrastructure?
These are some of the questions we’ll be exploring, when focusing on what hope there is for COP31 later this year.
