Can the Law and Corporations adapt to IPCC advice in time?

What struck me about the IPCC report was that we have 12 years to put in place massive drawdown projects.

The funny thing is we know what to do.  What is in the way?

In this show we find out how the legal system and the myths under which business operates are preventing them really reading the IPCC report and behaving in a responsible way.

We talk to:

David Ritter CEO of Greenpeace Australia about the legal impediments.

 

 

Professor Christopher Wright Co Author with Daniel Nyberg of “Climate Change, Capitalism and Corporations”- Professor of Organisational Studies at the University of Sydney Business School.

 

 

Dr Andrew King- Melbourne University ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science on the IPCC Report 2018
