Climate Integrity Summit 2023
Bringing together leading experts to discuss and address integrity risks that could jeopardise Australia's emissions reduction policies.
Will Australia's climate targets have integrity? Are we set for a green investment boom or greenwash?
It is time to bring the key themes of the 2022 federal election—climate and integrity—together to ensure the Australia's emissions reduction policies can and do legitimately reduce emissions.
