In this episode, I run through upcoming climate and sustainability developments in each Australian jurisdiction. There's a lot happening on climate, biodiversity and waste!
As well providing a detailed outline of legislative and policy developments, I allocate a word or phrase that in some way captures the performance of each jurisdiction. Find out why I've called one state "the comfort zone", why another state has earned a "show me the money" tag because of its work on financial incentives and disincentives, and why one jurisdiction is showing clear signs of "regulatory capture".
There is a reference in this episode to a blog post on Western Australia's appallingly bad Pilbara Environmental Offsets Fund. You can find that post here https://earthed.au/how-things-are-done-in-australias-most-nature-negative-state.
Plus Mark Tilly, Asia Pacific editor of Carbon Pulse and Biodiversity Pulse, chats about international developments in 2025. Get set for a wild ride as the world grapples with the new US Administration!
