How energy startups are sidestepping climate politics | Visionary

Australia is uniquely exposed to the realities of climate change. This vast continent is already hot and dry, and increasingly vulnerable to extreme weather. And yet, despite the scale of several deadly weather events, climate policy remains one of the most divisive issues in Australian politics. In recent years, the country’s main conservative coalition has been largely forced out of the major cities by a new group of independent MPs — the so-called Teals — all women, all advocating stronger climate action. Political journalist Karen Middleton joins Georgina Godwin to explore how climate change became such a fault line in Australian public life — and whether this hot, dry nation can forge a more unified path forward before the next crisis arrives.
