Professor Mike Young (Centre for Global Food and Resources) is best known for his contribution to the development of robust natural resource and environmental policies. In recent times, his research has focused on the development of market-based approaches to the resolution of water scarcity and quality issues.

Here he speaks on ‘Limiting, sharing access to and permitting use of our climate’ at the public forum ‘Meeting Australia’s Climate Change Targets: Price, Opportunity and Pathways’ hosted by the Environment Institute and Centre for Energy Technology at the University of Adelaide on the 29th of April 2019.

He speaks about Australia’s current unsuccessful approaches to meeting climate change targets and discusses alternative methods of meeting them.
