Australia Needs a Green New Deal

Posted on: Wed 21 Oct 2020

Speaking at last week’s National Press Club, Greens leader Adam Brandt referred to the Coalition’s ignorance towards renewable energy investment as ‘criminal’.

Brandt reiterated his suggestion for Australia to implement ‘Green New Deals’ to stimulate economic recovery through environmental projects, rather than the proposed ‘gas-fired recovery’.

To speak more about this approach, Breakfast‘s Tom Mann and Zoe Kounadis spoke with Kate Crowley, Associate Professor, Public and Environmental Policy at University of Tasmania.
