Along with the recently released National Climate Risk Assessment and National Adaptation Plan, Australia has announced its long-awaited and more ambitious Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), targeting a 62–70 per cent reduction below 2005 levels by 2035, raising the bar for national climate action.

Higher national targets will drive stronger policy levers, sharpen investor scrutiny, and elevate disclosure requirements. For business leaders, the question is: what does this shift mean for operations, compliance, risk and opportunity?

In this 45-minute webinar, Eliza Murray and Tennant Reed join Anthesis’ Matt Drum, to unpack Australia’s new NDC, exploring what it is, plans to meet the target, and what it means for business.
