Podcast appearances and mentions of Chris Bowen

Jeremy Cordeaux is in the garage with Pete and Gary for a Court of Public Opinion that runs hot on where your money is going. Top of the list: a quietly announced $650,000 grant scheme paying up to $20,000 a head to fly climate activists and Aboriginal groups to COP31 at a luxury Turkish beachside resort — while 240,000 Australians sit in energy poverty and almost $150 million has already been allocated to the campaign. Jeremy's question is simple: if you want diversity in the delegation, why not invite a few people who think the whole thing is a con? He also takes aim at Chris Bowen's 70-strong support staff, the absurdity of Australia locking up its uranium and coal while India and China top the OECD prosperity chart and we sit second from the bottom, and Canstar's finding that Australia now has the highest inflation rate in the developed world — alongside a record $19.4 billion in credit card debt costing $10 million a day in interest. Elsewhere: Professor Victor Gao's claim on the ABC that China can strike anywhere on earth within 20 minutes, and why Jeremy thinks it makes no sense ("why would you bomb it when you've already bought it?"); 47,000 hours of ambulance ramping in Adelaide in June alone; the schizophrenia of gambling ads that end by telling you not to gamble, when naming a cigarette brand on air is a crime; 31 charges over an Adelaide Plains piggery; and a wander through 16 July — Apollo 11, Ginger Rogers doing it backwards in high heels, Margaret Court, Adam Scott, Jane Birkin's handbag, and the story of Derryn Hinch's very first radio broadcast, live from the Kennedy Space Center. Jeremy also reflects on reports of the death of actor Sam Neill at 78.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australia is navigating an extraordinarily complex energy transition. It is both a major exporter of fossil fuels and a global leader in rooftop solar, while recent disruption to fuel supplies has reinforced the importance of energy security alongside decarbonisation. As the country prepares to co-host COP31 alongside Türkiye, the choices it makes will have implications well beyond its borders. This week on Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich sits down with Chris Bowen, Australia's Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Chris explains how Australia responded to the recent fuel crisis, why he believes the road to net-zero starts with households, and how the government is balancing affordability, reliability and emissions reduction. Chris and Michael explore Australia's rapid growth in rooftop solar and home batteries, why electric vehicles have been slower to take off, the challenges of expanding the electricity grid, and what Australia's joint leadership of COP31 means for its role on the global stage. Throughout, Chris explains how he sees the challenge of making the energy transition practical, affordable and politically achievable. Topics include: How Australia avoided fuel shortages during the global energy crisis Why Minister Bowen believes the path to net zero starts with households How to make rooftop solar and home batteries work at scale The challenge of electrifying transport in Australia Building the grid needed for a renewable energy future Balancing climate ambition with political and community support What Australia's energy transition can teach the rest of the world Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle. The members are Actis, Alcazar Energy, Arup, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, Cygnum Capital, Davidson Kempner, Ecopragma Capital, EDP, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, Schneider Electric, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

Jeremy Cordeaux presents The Court of Public Opinion. The energy regulator's own report lays it out in black and white: electricity prices have risen $22.7 billion since Labor came to power — despite the promise of a $275 saving. Jeremy asks how Energy Minister Chris Bowen can keep blaming the previous government, and why net zero and the renewables push have made power dearer, not cheaper. Also in this episode: Anthony Albanese's cringeworthy podcast appearance filmed at The Lodge; One Nation's plan to scrap the Office of Multicultural Affairs; Tony Abbott's powerful London speech on mass migration; the case for banning gambling advertising; Fiji's Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka and the politics of the South Pacific; plus Jeremy's "On This Day".
