The Labour Movement, the State and Climate Change 

Watch the first in the Labour and Climate Change Lecture Series with Damon Silvers and explore the critical role workers and unions will play in the fight against climate change.
This discussion looks at the nature of climate change as both a political economy problem and an engineering problem, the implications of the increasingly alarming science of climate change, the nature of state action required to effectively fight climate change in the closing window we have left, and the critical role of workers, their unions and their political organisations in providing the political backing necessary for effective climate policy.
