If much of the world can work together to beat a deadly pandemic, imagine what might happen if we turned our collective energy to tackling the climate crisis.

The devastating summer of Australian bush fires underlined the terrifying sense of a world pushed to the brink. Then came Covid-19, and with it another dramatic shift.

At the same time, many people are hoping for a post-pandemic ‘new normal’: a cleaner, greener, fairer and safer world.
