Offsetting Us Up To Fail: The myths of ‘nature markets’ explained

Zoom

Australian governments have committed to tackling the twin climate and biodiversity crises but continue to subsidise and approve fossil fuels and habitat destruction. While simple policy solutions exist, governments are instead relying on over-complicated market-based solutions to conceal the fundamental contradiction between support for fossil fuel production and promises to save the environment.

Join Executive Director Richard Denniss and Senior Researcher Polly Hemming for a discussion that simplifies and debunks myths around offsets and environmental markets and suggests effective policy alternatives. Only on Australia Institute TV.
