Watch our latest Briefing Room, where our Renovation Pathways team discuss how Australians can drastically reduce their home energy use and save thousands of dollars each year. climateworkscentre.org/resource/how-a…

“Victorian Energy Efficiency Target (VEET) has worked…because VEET reflects the critical thing in behaviour change, which is to make it as easy as possible,” - John Thwaites ⁦@ClimateworksCtr⁩ ⁦@MonashMSDI⁩ ⁦⁦@MonashUni⁩ ⁦ themandarin.com.au/241475-john-th…

Great to share my view on Monash Lens discussing why it's important to celebrate the fact that Climate and Clean Energy sits high on the Australia Asean collaboration agenda. @politics-society/2024/03/05/1386533/its-about-time-climate-and-clean-energy-sit-high-on-australias-asean-agenda?amp=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">lens-monash-edu.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/lens.monas…

As a nation, Indonesia 'can see the opportunities, we understand the blockers and limitations, now we require strong political will to bring about action,' Climateworks Centre Indonesia Country Lead Guntur Sutiyono says.

With great sadness, we acknowledge the passing of Harold Mitchell – a friend, visionary, and philanthropist. His commitment to peace, sustainable development, and youth empowerment as well as his support for @MonashMSDI, @UNSDSN and @ClimateworksCtr leaves an enduring legacy.

Our 'Climate-ready homes' report shows most Australians could save thousands each year by upgrading the thermal efficiency of their homes. Explore an interactive chart showing the average savings for households in each state and territory: climateworkscentre.org/news/renovatin…

‘The number one barrier to reducing Australia’s runaway transport emissions has been a lack of fuel efficiency standards.’ – @ClimateworksCtr's @HelenRowe_, as reported by @p_hannam & @sbasfordcanales @GuardianAus. theguardian.com/environment/20…

We're heartened to see the preferred option omits technology credits which could have watered down the standard and made it less transparent. The introduction of this standard is a welcome first stop on the road to decarbonising Australia's entire transport sector. (3/3)

We're pleased to see @ausgov release a preferred design for a New Vehicle Efficiency Standard. We've long supported such a standard as the critical lever for boosting supply of zero emission vehicles in Australia to meet growing demand. infrastructure.gov.au/infrastructure… (1/3)

'On top of saving money and potentially increasing resale values, making our homes more energy efficient is key to tackling climate change.' - Dr Gill Armstrong @arch_lintel speaking to @WAtoday. watoday.com.au/national/weste…

@FT @sustainviews Want to know more about Australia's proposed climate-related financial disclosure requirements? Check out our explainer: climateworkscentre.org/news/mandatory…

Climate-related financial disclosure requirements 'represent a significant shift for many companies' but will form 'the starting point [for Australia’s] broader sustainable finance strategy', Climateworks Centre's Tom Wainwright tells @FT @sustainviews. sustainableviews.com/australias-cli…

Traditionally considered a climate laggard, Australia should soon be brought closer to leaders in the field, such as the EU, by proposed government legislation on.ft.com/4bgSsSb @ClimateworksCtr #climatedisclosure #SustainableFinance
