Welcome to the first edition of OGA for 2026!
As well as our news in brief, this edition we take a closer look at the Climate Science and Modelling Roundtable convened by the Climate Change Authority on 13 February. The event brought together leading climate science agencies, senior policymakers and major climate data users to address growing concerns about the resilience of Australia’s climate intelligence system.
We’re refreshing this newsletter to make it more useful with less noise, but still giving readers the climate news you love. You’ll now receive OGA every fortnight on a Wednesday and back issues will be available on our website. Please email us at oga@cca.gov.au to let us know what you think of the new OGA.
