In this episode of The Optimistic American, host Paul Johnson is joined by Josh Abrams and Matt Burgess to explore how citizen assemblies are providing innovative solutions to local challenges like youth homelessness and political division. Through random selection, these assemblies give ordinary citizens a direct voice in tackling complex issues, fostering civic participation and community trust. Josh and Matt explain the transformative power of deliberative democracy — where citizens engage in meaningful discussions, learn from experts, and propose recommendations that directly influence local government decisions. If you're passionate about finding new ways to heal divisions and empower communities, this video is for you. Topics Discussed in the Video: - The Power of Citizen Assemblies: Paul, Josh, and Matt dive into the mechanics of citizen assemblies, how they work, and why they are essential for engaging communities in democratic processes. The goal is to give everyone a voice and a seat at the table, regardless of political background. - Addressing Youth Homelessness: One of the critical issues tackled by the citizen assembly in Central Oregon is youth homelessness. Josh shares how the assembly is gathering ideas and solutions from the community, aiming to find sustainable ways to support young people in need. - Overcoming Political Divides Through Dialogue: Josh and Matt discuss how these assemblies are breaking down the urban-rural and political divides that often fragment communities. By focusing on listening and empathy, participants from all walks of life work together to create practical solutions. - Government Collaboration and Real Change: The guests emphasize the importance of having local government buy-in to ensure that the recommendations from the assemblies lead to real change. By actively involving public officials from the start, the process guarantees that these citizen-led solutions are given serious consideration.

Once you find one you like (probably Google Chrome, if you're anything like the other 3 billion people who use it), chances are it just fades into the background while you do your scrolling. But behind the scenes, browsers handle a lot of information, especially when it comes to collecting all of your sweet, sweet data. This week on Gadget Lab, WIRED senior writer Matt Burgess joins us to talk about the dark side of browsers, and how to go about blocking ads and controlling your data online.

Kiwi households are paying more than $3,000 extra on essentials than they were 12 months ago, and policies implemented by the Government and Reserve Bank are contributing to the problem. Matt Burgess talks to Oliver Hartwich about his latest research note. The pair discuss the policies that have exacerbated Kiwis' cost-of-living pressures and predict what we can expect to see in the near future.

Earlier this week, Climate Change Minister James Shaw was interviewed by Andrew Dickens on Newstalk ZB about our latest research, Pretence of Necessity: Why further climate change action isn't needed and won't help. The Minister made some dubious claims during his interview. Report author Matt Burgess sat down with Oliver Hartwich to address each of the Minister's points and clear up his confusion.

The New Zealand Initiative has released a report on climate change called the Pretence of Necessity. It's been written by a bloke called Matt Burgess who used to be Bill English's Senior Economic Advisor for 4 years and has a long history working on public policy, competition, governance and network industries including electricity, gas and telecommunications and infrastructure for both the government and private industry. In it, he says that at May's Budget, the government will commit $4.5 billion to new spending on climate change, more than $2,000 per household and it will not reduce our emissions at all. His argument is we already have a cap-and-trade framework. We cap the total emissions and then we trade the spare with the Emissions Trading Scheme. So, if we launch a new policy to reduce a specific emission then the credits earned will then get transferred to other emission sectors. Meaning that overall, we get no gain at all. James Shaw will join me later to dispute this but the claims ring true with me. After all, so far nothing has worked and New Zealand emissions have increased year after year after year. I'd like to see emissions lowered. We have a finite world and we don't need to fill it full of exhaust. But I also know the whole world is run on energy and apart from hydro and wind it all comes from burning stuff. So, when we cap emissions, we're asking somebody to burn less stuff. But ever since the Emission Trading Scheme emerged as the world-wide tool to lower emissions, I've realised that it's a failed scheme, a market dreamt up by academics, a scheme that doesn't reduce emissions just moves them around a bit. Along with offsets it's created Never Never Land. A world where people make themselves feel good by transferring their energy use to someone else. The mindset hit its nadir when Coldplay announced their last world tour would be the world's first carbon-neutral concert tour. Which meant that the band still jetted around the world in their aeroplanes, consuming vast amounts of electricity at each show, while showering confetti over a hundred stadiums but claim it's all good for the planet because they plant forests all over the show. There's only one way to cut emissions and that's to cut emissions.  And the only way to cut emissions and keep the planet working is to develop a clean way to power it. Everything else is virtue signalling and blame-shifting. 

Further climate change action from the Government isn't needed and won't help.  That's the finding from a new report from the NZ Initiative.  The Government's set to spend big bucks on climate change in the next budget, more than $200,000 per household.  But the report says existing policies are enough to reach net zero emissions by 2050, and new ones will have almost no effect.  Matt Burgess is the senior economist and writer and he joined Mike Hosking. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is New Zealand's Net Zero carbon emissions target of 2050 likely or achievable? Will electric vehicle subsidies and similar policies help us get there? Matt Burgess joins Ben Craven to talk through the findings of his latest research report, Pretence of Necessity: Why further climate change action isn't needed and won't help.
