The Climate Change and Environment theme of BHRIGHT illuminates the role that business plays in critical environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity and pollution, and the impacts this has on human rights.
It offers a lens on how climate change impacts the operation of business in Australia’s future ‘carbon constrained economy’; how environmental accountability is key to long term business success, particularly in terms of human rights issues.
We conduct research and provide commentary on specific fields of interest such as climate change risk, stakeholder engagement, building standards, transport and mobility, energy consumption, GHG emissions measurement and reporting. The Climate Change and Environment theme intersects with the work of other themes in BHRIGHT, for example in relation to climate refugees and migration, the gendered impact of climate change, and the varied effects of a warmer world on work in supply chains.
