"Even as unprecedented fires and heatwaves rage across Europe, scientists track
the retreat of Antarctic sea ice and a supercharged El Niño system heads our
way, Australia’s largest companies are forecasting business-as-usual in a much
hotter world.
Last year, Australia introduced mandatory company climate reporting. They must
now disclose the climate “risks and opportunities” that may affect their
prospects.
Several of Australia’s biggest energy and resource companies have now published
new sustainability reports as part of annual financial reporting.
Their disclosures reveal the climate future they are planning for, and whether
this is aligned with international science-based targets such as the Paris
Agreement’s 1.5°C warming threshold.
What we’re seeing is alarming."
