The climate crisis is vast, complex and often feels both imminent and frustratingly out of our control. With global systems slow to change and the scale of the challenge immense, it’s easy to wonder if individual action could ever be enough. On World Environment Day, Climate Warriors brought together four transformative voices; renewable energy expert and former Biden administration advisor Saul Griffith, Solar Citizen CEO Heidi Lee Douglas, climate activist Grace Vegesana along with host and journalist Craig Reucassel, to unpack the power and limitations of grassroots action, climate innovation and community-driven change. From local initiatives to systemic shifts, they unpacked what’s working, what isn’t, and where real impact is being made. While no single effort can solve the climate crisis, collective action has the potential to tip the balance. Presented by the UNSW Centre for Ideas and UNSW Engineering, in association with the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

CLIMATE ACTION RADIO SHOWProduced by Vivien LangfordSeptember 23rd 2024 TAKING CLIMATE TO THE WORLD'S HIGHEST COURT - THE TALBOT ORATION "Will it take losing all our islands before the world listens to our stories? Still today slowly the once beautiful island that some of my relatives and family call home is being eaten away day by day by the sea"Cynthia Houniuhi, President of the Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change (PISFCC)To find out more and lend support : https://www.pisfcc.org/icjao Internationally renowned Pacific climate champion, Cynthia Houniuhi, tells her story of fighting for change in the world's highest court.Following her address, Cynthia was joined by a panel of fellow climate campaigners, including ABC presenter and popular television personality, Craig Reucassel, and International Director at the Smart Energy Council, Richie Merzian, in a discussion hosted by 10 News First presenter Narelda Jacobs OAM. As President of Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change (PISFCC), Cynthia led a team of activists to agitate for the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to define the responsibilities of nations to combat climate change, and the legal consequences of failing to do so. Born and raised in the Solomon Islands, Cynthia is witnessing first-hand the devastating impacts of climate change in the Pacific and is committed to ensuring nations around the world understand their obligations to take positive climate action. Cynthia and PISFCC are powerful examples of how the work of youth activists is safeguarding the world for generations to come.

Head on over to https://www.patreon.com/LetMeSumUp.—This week your intrepid hosts are joined by a very special guest. He is a writer, a comedian, a broadcaster, a wager of Wars on Waste and a general in the Fight for Planet A, Craig Reucassel! And the reinforcements are warranted as we launch into an extended opening segment focused on AEMO's 2024 Integrated System Plan. This discussion ranged across delights such as the big Consumer Energy Resources rebrand (and what's changed other than the name), why gas peaking capacity is like insurance (Tennant tells all) and the zero carbon tech we can turn to to deal with dunkelflaute in the long term (probably not batteries, and definitely not nuclear)! Our main paperWe also reached a tipping point on the concept of tipping points dear Summerupperers and took one for the collective team by diving into the latest offering from the University of Exeter's Global Systems Institute, the 2023 Global Tipping Points report. We had a look at the summary report (lots of things to worry about in there) and then did a deep dive on section four, Positive tipping points in technology, economy and society. TL;DR: ‘tipping points' may be a tad overused as a concept here but perhaps there are one or two areas in which we can leverage learning rates and catalyse some social contagion to replicate the success experienced by solar and wind.One more thingsTennant's One More Thing is an anecdote regarding a query he put to Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen at a recent forum at Parliament House. Politicians are known to duck questions from time to time, but at least the Minister's podcast themed parry gets points for novelty.Craig's One More Thing is his keen interest in ensuring costings for prospective nuclear plants factor in the expense of the continued use of aging, emissions intensive coal fired power stations while we wait for nuclear to come online. The man has a point!Frankie's One More Thing is a plug for friend of the pod, Tim Forcey, who's just published a book! My Efficient Electric Home Handbook is a practical guide on how to make your home more comfortable, efficient, fossil fuel free and cheaper to run. Tim is also one of the founders of popular Facebook group My Efficient Electric Home.

In this discussion with Tom King of Nanuk Asset Management we venture into the heart of the nuclear debate. Nuclear energy is an enigma…on paper, it presents itself as a low-emission ‘knight in shining armour' solution against climate change. However, as we delve into the details, we confront the stark realities – the main challenges are the huge financial burden and the formidable competitors in the form of low cost renewable energy sources. We explore whether nuclear power is the solution we've been seeking, or merely a diversion from more economical and efficient renewable alternatives. It's time to strip away the facade and examine the true cost of our choices in the pursuit of net zero.Tom King joined Nanuk in 2009 and is a director, chief investment officer and portfolio manager with the team. He has approximately 20 years' investment industry experience in equity funds management, investment banking and private equity. Tom holds a first class honours degree in Engineering from the University of Melbourne.

Our summer podcast series brings you some of the best conversations from our webinars and live events in 2023. 7 years ago, The ABC's groundbreaking environmental series War On Waste firmly placed the nation's attention on Australia's waste issues and solutions. The new season investigated recycling in Australia, brought to light new waste topics, challenged the lack of corporate accountability towards their own waste and explored what government can do to curb the waste tide. And most importantly the season provides straightforward solutions to help us all shift the status quo with Australia's waste crisis. Join Craig Reucassel, host and producer of ABC TV's War On Waste and Nina Gbor, Director Circular Economy & Waste Program at the Australia Institute, for a discussion on how we can all turn the tide to resolve Australia's waste crisis as individuals, within communities and with our local and national government.
