Jeremy Moss (pictured) was on stage yesterday at the Writers' Week at the Adelaide Festival and warned those listening to the session featuring himself and Professor Ian Lowe, "Bad Energy", that we, Australia, needed to be careful of the company we keep.

Both were at the festival because of their most recent books: "Long Half-Life: The Nuclear Industry in Australia" by Ian Lowe; and "Carbon Justice: The scandal of Australia’s biggest contribution to climate change" by Jeremy Moss.

The challenges of insurance during the present troubles in Queensland and New South Wales were discussed on the ABC's RN Breakfast this morning in a session - "Climate change will reshape how and where we live".

The Climate Council also staged a special webinar to celebrate, acknowledge and recognise International Women's Day and the leader of Australian Bushfire Survivors for Climate Action, Jo Dodds, gave an impassioned presentation.
