AWW23: State-Sponsored Greenwash - Polly Hemming & Marian Wilkinson

Full title: State-Sponsored Greenwash: Offsetting Us Up to Fail Chair: Paul Barclay Brought to you by The Australia Institute in partnership with Adelaide Writers’ Week While Australia has signed up to ’net zero emissions’ by 2050, governments and industry are still pursuing an agenda of fossil fuel expansion. Clever accounting, dodgy offsets and technocratic fantasies like carbon capture and storage continue to be used to conceal the fundamental contradiction between plans to increase gas and coal production and promises to tackle climate change. This session exposes Australia’s greenwash and regulatory capture – the critical first step to robust climate policy. Event details: Mon 06 Mar, 2:30pm on the North Stage
