Transforming our energy system isn’t negotiable. But how we go about it is.
The impacts of climate change fall most heavily on people and communities experiencing disadvantage, and they are often least equipped to adapt to its effects.
We need urgent action if we are to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change and achieve Australia’s goal of a net-zero economy by 2050. Our society must move from a reliance on fossil fuels to sustainable, clean energy sources to rapidly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
But a just transition must be underpinned by social and economic transformation that puts people and communities first.
Our work is helping to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels while ensuring no one is left behind.
We lead cross-sector advocacy to influence government and corporate decision-making, engage in regulatory processes to drive fairer outcomes, and use targeted legal strategies to improve energy policy and regulation.
Our solutions promote smart, principled and targeted investment and regulation, to achieve a transition to a zero-carbon energy system that is sustainable and fair.
