Tim Buckley and Philip Bateman | Where should we be spending our tax money for the betterment of the nation?

Philip Bateman Season 3 Episode 22

Where should we be spending our tax money for the betterment of the nation?

How do we subsidise every unit of fossil fuel production and burning across the world, and what do we do about this 'grey discount' aka 'green premium'?

What's China up to and what does Australia do when competing with them directly is a mugs game?

Join Tim Buckley of the Climate Energy Finance think tank and I, as we we answer these questions together after his panel session 'The Biggest Investment Mega Trend in History' at the Investor Group on Climate Change (IGCC) Summit, which he shared with Alexis Cheang, Persephone Fraser and Alan Hsu.

We also go into the perfect example of exporting embodied decarbonisation thanks to Marghanita Johnson and the Australian Aluminium Council, plus disagreeing with the productivity commission, and reference a number of hard working folk;

Professor Rod Sims, Minister Bowen, Minister Ed Husic MP, Treasure Jim Chalmers, Senator Penny Wong, Guy Debelle, Trinasolar, SunDrive, UNSW, Rio Tinto, Hancock Prospecting, BHP and Fortescue.
