Decarbonisation Futures: Special Briefing by Climate Works

As Australia looks to rebuild the economy out of the pandemic, there is a chance to do so while setting up for the crucial decade for climate action.

Earlier this month ClimateWorks launched Decarbonisation
Futures: Solutions, actions and benchmarks for a net zero emissions Australia.

This work was prepared in partnership with CSIRO. It sets out
detailed evidence for how major sectors of the economy can move zero emissions
and keep warming below 2 degrees, and even 1.5 degrees.

You're invited into the "briefing
room" online, to dive into the details and answer any of your questions
about our findings.
