Many nations have committed to tougher emissions reduction targets, including Australia, which is hoping to reach net zero by 2050. But India says it will only reach that goal by 2070 and China is standing by its target of 2060. - イギリスのボリス・ジョンソン首相は、世界が気候的に「この世の終わりの日」に直面しており、ただちに行動すべきときだと述べました。これは2日間のCOP26気候変動サミットの最初の日に、グラスゴーに集まった世界の首脳たちに向けた彼のメッセージでした。オーストラリアも含めて世界の多くの国は2050年までにネットゼロに達することを希望して、排出ガス削減目標をもっと厳しくすることにコミットしました。しかし、インドは2070年までにその目標に達するのが精一杯としており、中国はその2060年の目標を保持しています。

I don't think they realize that we are already starting to see the effects of the mass extinction and that the planet has gone through this before, but there is one difference.  The major difference is the fact that the Permian extinction (which occurred approximately 66 million years ago) was caused by volcanic activity while the 6th mass extinction was caused by humans.  The good news is that we can stop it; however, we need to act now.

Another chance to listen to an episode that asks whether we can change our ways. Drastic change is needed to limit the increase in global temperature caused by climate change. More than two-thirds of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide result from how we live our lives. But the behaviours that drive these emissions tend to be deeply habitual and hard to shift - the way we heat our homes, what we eat and how we travel to work. And our behavioural good intentions all too often fail to translate into action. So our climate question this week is how we can be nudged, or even shoved, to change?

Jodie lives in tropical Queensland, which she says is 'paradise', but it's also a place affected by bushfires, drought, and cyclones. Prime Minister Scott Morrison says 'Australia can always be relied upon' to deliver action on climate change, but critics at home and abroad point to a record of over-promising and under-delivering. Observers also blame the country's powerful and profitable fossil fuel industries as a reason why the Australian government has been slow to make progress.

This week on City Limits, we get an update on Transport in Victoria from our regular transport expert John McPherson. We also invite Leigh Ewbank, climate justice campaigner from Friends of the Earth, on the show to discuss a recent announcement from the Andrews Government to repower all of Melbourne's metropolitan trains (and all state schools and hospitals) with solar and wind-generated electricity. We also discuss community resistance to the North-East Link project, and how since the transport sector is our state's 2nd largest (and fastest growing!) source of emissions, FOE is allocating their resources to promote sustainable public transport options in Victoria. FOE's climate-focused campaigns you can get involved in:Sustainable Cities campaign: supporting communities resisting the North-East Link, and making the case for the Melbourne Metro 2 Yes2Renewables campaign: arguing for greater investment in solar and wind, as well as energy storageAct on Climate campaign: calling for the government to set science-based emissions reduction targets, aiming to encourage investment into increased and sustainable public transport, writing a collaborative peoples' climate strategy

This episode is an adaptation of the launch event for the People's Climate Strategy, held by Act on Climate on June 3rd. Friends of the Earth Melbourne's Act on Climate collective officially launched its push to write a People's Climate Strategy for Victoria with over one thousand people watching the online launch via Zoom and Facebook live. The strong level of interest is a vote of confidence in the idea.Writing a People's Climate Strategy for Victoria to present to the Andrews government later this year is a bold and ambitious undertaking. But shaping the state's first climate strategy is an opportunity that can't be missed.The Victorian government is required to prepare and rollout a climate strategy every five years out to 2050. Our efforts in coming months will influence the Labor government's own plan (which must be prepared by October 31) as well as all those that follow it.   Stay informed about the People's Climate Strategy by following Act on Climate https://www.actonclimate.org.au/ https://www.facebook.com/ActOnClimateVic Get in touch if you've got an event happening that would make a great audio adaptation, or if you're otherwise interested in podcasting/climate engagement.  hello@climactic.fm See /privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

"We're not here for very long, so we're going to do everything we can to move historical climate legislation forward." -Molly Kawahata, about her years of working on climate and energy for the White House during the Obama Administration I am thrilled to share this conversation with Molly Kawahata. I first met Molly when she worked as the Policy Advisor for Energy and Climate Change at the White House during the Obama Administration. I remember being invited to a call about a climate initiative by the White House, and being so excited, only to accidentally mess up the time on the call and miss it while on a trail run! I was so disappointed, but luckily, I was able to join a future call. Molly started the #ActOnClimate social media campaign, which currently has over 130,000 posts, which is what the call I missed was about! I got to meet Molly on a trip to Washington DC with Protect Our Winters and we instantly bonded. She's one of the brightest people I know, with a special talent for climate messaging. In this episode, we chat about climate, voting, what it was like working at the White House, environmental sinners vs. environmental saints and mountaineering adventures with tips for how we can all improve our messaging on climate.

Due to a change in schedule last week, the normal AoC meeting wasn't recorded, so instead we bring you an extended interview with Kate Wattchow, long-time activist and campaigner with Friends of the Earth Melbourne, both at Yes 2 Renewables and Act on Climate. We get into the daily realities of campaigner life, what propelled Kate down this path, missed opportunities to become a campaigner even earlier in life, and what sustains and motivates Kate to keep going.
