Webinar: Electrifying Australia

But what does net zero really mean and what does it require to get there? What can we do now and what are we waiting for? How does business bring about multi-generational, lasting change in the face of policy paralysis?

Join a panel of leading experts and businesses that are taking action now to find out what we need to do.
