In Australia’s first greenwashing case testing net zero, the Court accused energy company Santos of misleading investors about its emissions reduction and net-zero targets. The Court clarified that climate-related claims should be assessed in context and from the perspective of a reasonable investor, not through strict scientific interpretation.
Thailand’s Climate Change Act is timely and responsive to public concern, but the current version is a frail gesture addressing a complex problem.
As lobbyists flood plastic treaty talks, negotiators must uphold the rule of law to prevent corporate capture, including existing guidelines to stop the tobacco industry — a major source of plastic waste — from influencing policies.
Although most people care deeply about addressing the climate crisis, only a minority of respondents in recent surveys trust their governments to achieve a fair and just net-zero transition.
