Glasgow Wrap-up and what comes next for Australian climate policy
A wrap up of the Glasgow COP26 climate summit and what it means for Australia
Glasgow was the first UN Climate Summit where fossil fuels were specifically targeted as the major cause of climate change – join our Climate & Energy director Richie Merzian — just off the plane from Glasgow — for a wrap up of the big outcomes from COP26, what the pact means for Australia and what we can expect for next year’s COP27 in Egypt.
This was recorded on 23 November 2021 and things may have changed since recording.
