We asked climate researchers to peer through the smog and highlight some positive stories from 2018.
Robins are a much loved Christmas icon, but wind turbines installed in their habitat are affecting their song, with worrying consequences.
The average consumerist suburban lifestyle is unsustainable. But what if affluent suburbanites and battlers alike ditch the rat race and embrace economic ‘degrowth’? Here’s how it might unfold.
Far from being wiped off the map as was once predicted, Whyalla is coming back in an unlikely way, as potentially Australia’s biggest steel producer powered almost entirely by renewable energy.
Multiple studies have found the overall impact on labor markets to be minor, even if some workers will need new career paths.
South Africa needs a policy that drives growth and positions if for the 21st Century.
South Australia’s energy prices have gone up as more renewables entered the market – but prices would have gone up even more without them.
An energy transmission network between Australia and Indonesia could help both nations achieve 100% renewable electricity by 2050.
This and Turnbull’s observations on energy policy provided abundant material for a question time attack by Labor bloated from dining on the unending manna that’s been flowing from political heaven.
Indian mining firm Adani has announced scaled-down plans for its planned Queensland coal mine, which it will now fund itself. But there are still many questions hanging over the project.
The two countries have successfully collaborated on electricity supply for 11 years, but could Brexit pull this unique UK-Ireland innovation apart?
Making the transition to a sustainable energy future also means ensuring that affected communities - such as Australia’s coal workers - aren’t left by the wayside.
The UK’s “illegal” backup power subsidy scheme effectively subsidised fossil fuel power generation. Lets use the hiatus to build a more flexible, low carbon energy system.
The Labor Party’s newly announced energy policy could finally set Australia’s electricity sector on the path to a renewables-driven future. But policies are still needed to cut emissions elsewhere.
The federal Coalition’s primary vote fell for the third consecutive time, to 34%, in a poll that if replicated at an election would cost 21 seats.
Federal Labor has promised to give rebates of up to $2,000 to 100,000 households to install batteries to store power from solar panels. Is this good energy policy, or just middle-class welfare?
Labor’s promise to subsidise batteries for households quickly became, in government parlance, “pink batts to pink batteries” – seeking to trigger memories of Rudd’s policy that cost several lives.
A new poll reveals many Australians want to cut their electricity bills - but many also want to reduce emissions.
In order to address a warming planet over the medium and long-term, climate policy must be designed to be adaptable and indeed attractive to those across the political spectrum.
