With a conservative elected government in Canberra, whose views and actions range from climate-denialism to inadequate policy responses, what narratives about global warming might help change the way the broader government grasps this issue? David will discuss his recent work on climate change, conflict and risk in the Asia-Pacific region, and how this approach works in Canberra.
