By Ben McLeod, Ben Mcleod, Martin Rice, Josh Comer, Bianca Sands| Climate Council@ Australia has entered the ‘era of climate consequences’, with the vast majority of Australian households already impacted by climate change. Climate pollution from the burning of coal, oil and gas is fuelling increasingly severe bushfires, floods, heatwaves and destructive storms. As a result, the overwhelming majority (84%) of Australians report being directly affected by at least one climate-fuelled disaster since 2019.
By Martin Rice| Climate Council@ Summer hols, here we go…So what’s the plan? Drive our electric car from Melbourne to the Sunshine Coast and back, taking in the epic Victorian Alpine Country and stunning NSW-Queensland coastline and hinterland. That’s just a casual 4,300km round trip.
By Hollie Cheung, Jennifer Rayner, Martin Rice, Danielle Veldre| Analysis & Policy Observatory (APO)@ Climate change impacts every part of our lives – from our health, wellbeing and the safety of our communities, to the stability and security of the financial and economic systems on which we depend. Unless we take strong action this decade to address its drivers by rapidly cutting emissions, Australians face escalating and compounding risks now and for decades to come.

Climate Council
The Climate Council is an independent, community-funded organization in Australia dedicated to climate science, impacts, and solutions. Founded in 2013 through a crowdfunding campaign, it operates as a non-profit entity advocating for evidence-based climate policies and public education. The organization aims for a 75% reduction in Australia's climate pollution by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2035. The Climate Council engages in various activities, including advocacy for emissions reduction policies, public education through research reports and media content, and community mobilization to encourage grassroots climate action. It produces peer-reviewed publications and offers policy recommendations to lawmakers and businesses. The organization also runs nationwide campaigns to raise climate awareness among the general public, media organizations, and business leaders. Operating without government or corporate funding, it relies on community donations to maintain its independence and emphasizes the benefits of rapid decarbonization.
