As climate risks intensify, there is a growing need to understand how extreme weather events are affecting frontline workers. This report outlines survey findings of Australian frontline staff, conducted between January and February 2026. It finds that the vast majority of frontline staff across care and community services are being impacted by extreme weather events.

Climate change is not only warming the planet but also increasing humidity. This report focuses primarily on the broad category of extreme humid-heat events.

This paper presents a meta-analysis of ex-post empirical evidence on the effects of mitigation policies on emissions. It covers a range of pricing and non-pricing mitigation policies across five broad sectors: agriculture, forestry and other land use, buildings, industry, power and transport. The analysis assesses how policy design attributes and country-specific factors impact estimated policy...
