It has been a while since our last podcast episode and the world has certainly been going through a lot of changes. 

Signal to Noise student team member, Ben Harden, has produced this latest episode as part of an Advanced Project course at Griffith University.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our way of life, with immense impacts seen across the world. This has prompted a global response unlike anything we've seen before. Society has witnessed a transformational change that didn't appear possible just months ago. 

As the world recovers from Covid-19,  we must not let short-term solutions prevent us from addressing longer-term risks such as climate change.

In this podcast episode, Ben talks about Australia’s response to the climate crisis and how the government has reacted to the global pandemic and whether we could seize this fresh opportunity to focus on re-building our society and economy to help us in mitigating the effects of climate change.
