Why is Australia doubling down on fossil fuels?

A story of power and influence, pollution and protest. The world may have committed to curbing fossil-fuel use in the 2030s, but Australia's fossil-fuel giants have doubled down. They have plans for increased production into the 2070s. Support from the major parties is locked in, so something has to give.

In this ground-breaking essay, Marian Wilkinson reveals the ways of corporate power and investigates the new face of protest and disruption. The stakes could not be higher.
