Better Futures Forum – Our moment to drive national climate action

17 August, 2021 - 19 August, 2021

BETTER FUTURES FORUM

ABOUT

Australians are ready for decisive climate action that leverages the incredible opportunities we have to create sustainable jobs, regenerate industries and communities, and make Australia a renewable energy superpower. We now have a window to step up our climate commitments ahead of the UN Climate Summit in November, and to collectively forge a path to a better, cleaner, healthier and more prosperous future for us all.

The Better Futures Forum provides a platform for Australian companies, local, state and territory governments and community organisations to publicly launch their commitment to more ambitious climate action and plan ways to collaborate, including with government, to create better futures for us all.

Tuesday 17 August: Ambition for a healthy, prosperous zero emissions Australia
Wednesday 18 August: Short-term actions and opportunities
Thursday 19 August: The road to Glasgow: Together, we can do this!

Introducing Better Futures Australia

Better Futures Australia has brought together climate champions from every sector of society and the economy – finance; business; agriculture; health; faith groups; local, state and territory governments; First Nations; unions and more – who are:

  • Calling for ambitious national targets and action; and
  • Reimagining our future by demonstrating scalable climate solutions and success stories already underway.

Driving climate action together

Part of a global network of national alliances of climate champions driving climate action in their countries, including the United States, Argentina, Mexico, Vietnam, Japan, Brazil and South Africa, you are invited to be inspired and inspire others to step up climate action as part of the Better Futures Australia community during a groundbreaking year for global momentum on climate.
