Climate Change Unplugged: How outraged should we be?

Episode #72 // This week we take on one of the biggest, most complex topics in society and business today - climate change.With bushfires ravaging Australia on the back of one of the longest droughts in our history, the evidence for climate change is mounting. So too is the awareness and anger of the Australian people.This has driven media commentators, celebrities, and politicians alike to decry the sorry state of the planet. The vast majority of these are looking for someone to blame.However, many of our opinion leaders are ill-informed, simply regurgitating the populist view with little understanding of the complexities at play.Based on my experience as CEO of an electricity generation business, and my time serving on the board of the Australian energy industry’s peak representative body, I attempt to bring some balance to this difficult topic.Remember, like any wicked problem, if it was easy it would have already been solved!This episode isn’t just for leaders, so please share this episode with your network far and wide, and give them the opportunity to look at climate change through a different lens.Your boss wants more with less.
