Mark Butler in conversation with Mark Howden

Mark Butler, Shadow Minister for Climate Change and Energy, will be in conversation with Mark Howden, Director of the ANU Climate Change Institute, on Mark Butler’s new book, Climate Wars, which is a forceful case for using less and cleaner energy. Mark Butler will be introduced by Sharon Friel, Professor of Health Equity and Director of RegNet.

As the consequences of climate change become perilously close to the point of no return, time-wasting wars over what to do distract us from taking real action. Mark makes a forceful case for using less and cleaner energy as part of global action to save the planet. Doing so will also make Australia attractive for the massive global market of investors and create new jobs in clean energy.

Climate Wars argues that only Labor, the party with a proven track record for national reform, has the plan and the will to ensure bold action before it is too late.

Book signings will take place at 5.30pm before the conversation and then again after.
