After the Vote: What Australia’s new Parliament means for climate – and how we can make the most of it

The election results are in: Australians have voted for a future powered by renewables – and rejected policies that would have taken us backwards on climate action.

  • So, what kind of progress should we expect?
  • What are the best opportunities in the new Parliament? And what might the handbrakes be?
  • What should our vision for climate action in Australia be for the next three years – and how can I help make it a reality?

Hear from the Climate Council’s experts as we unpack these questions and more in our webinar After the Vote: What Australia’s new Parliament means for climate – and how we can make the most of it.

Watch the recording below to hear from Climate Councillor Professor Tim Flannery, Advocacy Director Alex Engel-Mallon and Head of Strategic Communications Dinah Arndt, in a conversation chaired by our CEO Amanda McKenzie, to better understand what this election result means for climate.

The Climate Council is 100% independent, and community-funded. We have the experts. We have the plan. We have made huge progress. But we have to do much more, more quickly, to meet the scale of the challenge ahead – and we need your backing to do it.
