Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen has used a COP31 Opening Plenary Speech to call on nations to take faster action on climate change. Bowen is president of negotiations at this year’s climate summit. It was a role he was given after Australia ceded hosting rights to Türkiye. In the speech, Bowen said nations must move faster and scale up the use of technology. He’s called for more progress on electrification. “Whether it be glacial collapse in Nepal, heat deaths in Europe or an intensifying El Niño, climate change is here,” Bowen said.

When asked about the Coalition’s argument that the government needs to cut back on climate change mitigation measures to rein in spending and lower inflation, Boele says she’s not buying that argument. She says fossil fuels have been a “major part” of the “savage cost of living crisis, made even worse by the war in Iran”. “So I would say to the Coalition: when you’ve got a problem created by fossil fuels about dependency on international markets, we need to double down on our energy sovereignty,” she says. “And one of the best ways to do that is to electrify our economy, to make sure that we have homegrown, Aussie, clean energy here with solar and wind.”
