Australia’s leading climate science agencies, senior policymakers and major climate data users met in Canberra on 13 February for a Climate Science and Modelling Roundtable convened by the Climate Change Authority. The meeting addressed growing concerns about the resilience of Australia’s climate intelligence system and rising climate risks.
Assistant Minister for Climate Change and Energy Josh Wilson attended the Roundtable alongside the Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO, Australian Climate Services, leading university research centres, Treasury, APRA and the Insurance Council of Australia.
Discussions focused on how strengthening coordination across government, research institutions and end users of climate science will make sure information reaches those who depend on it most: households, insurers, farmers, emergency services and decision-makers.
