Episode Synopsis

It's hard to be optimistic about climate change with all that's going on at the moment, but this week's guest is able to do and can give us all the inspiration we need to keep fighting. This week we interview Tom Quinn, Head of Policy and Research at Beyond Zero Emissions.You'll learn:What is there to be optismitic about? Australia has incredible opportunities for green jobs, particularly as demand for sustainable products and services increases. Beyond Zero Emissions aims to help Australia create more green jobs and a more sustainable planet. As part of this is their 'Million Jobs Plan', which plans to rebuild our economy after the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic in a way that secures a cleaner future for all Aussies. In just five years, renewables and low emissions projects can deliver 1.8 million new jobs in the regions and communities where these are needed most. Useful links: about the Million Jobs Plan from Beyond Zero EmissionsSupport the show
