Liberal Party leader, Sussan Ley (pictured), is at the centre of discussions that mean little to what it is that Australians need to hear about addressing climate change.

"These numbers say net zero is doomed – and so is Sussan Ley";

"Where the sky keeps bursting";

"Greenwashing in the Evergreen State";

"Ley’s job on the line as Liberals reject net zero";

"Birrell advocates for coal, gas, and eventually nuclear";

"The Liberal party’s betrayal of younger voters on net zero isn’t just a moral failure – it’s electoral stupidity";

"The spectacular nonsense of the Coalition’s internal brawl over the 2050 net zero emissions target".

It's long — more than an hour — but well worth your time.

Victorian Trades Hall Council assistant secretary, Danae Bosler (pictured), told those at the Saturday, November 8, launch of the Climate Safety Plan, that it was the workers who bore the brunt of the world's changing climate.

She argued that they knew best what the problems were and how they should be confronted and resolved.

Nurse practitioner and union member, Sigrid Pitkin, explained to those at the Millennium Building launch at Seddon, in Melbourne's west, how a thunderstorm asthma event impacted Melbourne's health services.

Sigrid predicted that a warming climate would bring more similar and even worse events.

The Climate Safety Plan will propose policies spanning eight key areas: built environment; health; insurance; emergency management; community resilience; food and agriculture; workers' rights; and income support.

Speakers at the launch included:

• Kate Thwaites MP, Special Envoy for Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience.
• Madeleine Serle, Maribyrnong Community Recovery Association.
• Danae Bosler, Assistant Secretary, Victorian Trades Hall Council
• Sigrid Pitkin, Nurse Practioner and union member
