Climate change is a contentious issue but climate change science is not. The alarm bells are sounding with twenty of the hottest years on record occurring in the last twenty-two years. The projections are dire with one million animal species facing extinction and some of the impacts of climate change becoming irreversible by 2030. Despite only being 0.33% of the population of the world, Australia generates 1.07% of the world’s greenhouse gases. Australia’s disproportionally high emissions per person reflects the reliance on coal power for electricity production. Some 70% of Australia’s energy production derives from burning coal; a particularly emissions-intensive fuel source.

Fortunately, emissions are falling. Australia is a globally conscious nation and we are answering the call to combat climate change by flocking to renewable energies and adopting alternative pathways to reduce emissions. As consumers are increasingly more aware of the impacts of their choices, progressive businesses are taking action to address climate change in ways that improve environmental performance, strengthen their businesses, and meet the expectations of the communities in which they operate.

The climate change problem is simultaneously an opportunity for businesses to embody the changing public expectations and step into the leadership role to better serve their communities. Businesses can implement practical solutions that not only support the desires of their customers but also the environmental and economic goals of the business.

Strategies to meet climate targets will vary from sector to sector, but commercial solar production is a tried and tested economic model proven to reduce emissions and reduce the cost of electricity for businesses. The rapid growth in the renewable energy sector, especially solar has been inspired by large scale government investment in subsidies and incentives for business owners in an effort to meet the aspirations of the Renewable Energy Target (RET).
