AlterCOP 30 Australia - Day2: Sustainable Cities - Ep 3 - Energy Transitions

Locally organised by Australian charitable social enterprise, People For Nature and running in parallel to the UN COP30 summit in Brazil, AlterCOP 30 Australia offered a platform for inclusive, locally grounded conversations on climate change, biodiversity, sustainable cities, health, and community resilience, fostering hope, connection and tangible pathways to action. 🌍 This recording is from Day 2 of AlterCOP30 Australia in Meanjin (Brisbane). This afternoon session was enabled by the Working Group Sustainable Cities and elegantly led by the wonderful Sarah Woolmington from Impact Dragonfly. The energy transition is about people, place, and opportunity, not just technology. This session explores how solar microgrids and community energy projects can deliver reliable, affordable power while creating new pathways for jobs and regional development. The discussion highlights how energy innovation can drive social equity, empower local economies, and support a just transition for all communities. Speakers: 🎤 Aaron Johnstone – Queensland Renewable Energy Jobs Advocate 🎤 Kimberly Swords – Board Member, Renewables Expert 🎤 Kaneya Poudal – Community and Policy Lead, First Nations Clean Energy Network ******************** About AlterCOP AlterCOP is a global platform created in 2024 by The Transmutation Principle and The Matcha Initiative, active across 11 countries in 2025. In Australia, People For Nature was appointed as the local organiser of AlterCOP30 Australia, bringing this vision to life by empowering local sustainability action and partnerships — from youth and First Nations leaders to grassroots communities. We believe that COP is a necessary platform for political leaders and global decision-makers to negotiate and agree on policy in the Blue Zone. But as we cannot fly everyone to COP, we also believe in bringing these conversations home — into our countries, regions, and communities. AlterCOP creates a space for everyone to learn about sustainability and for organisations to showcase their climate initiatives, extending the spirit of the Green Zone without accumulating additional carbon emissions. While Australia sent 494 official delegates to COP30, more than 1,400 people registered for AlterCOP 30 Australia events across several states.
