Offshore wind is helping governments deliver deep emissions cuts, create thousands of jobs, and drive the a clean recovery in the United Kingdom and European Union.

But will Australia seize the offshore wind opportunity?... What will it take to establish the job-rich industry here in our country?

In September 2021, Friends of the Earth and The Climate Council co-hosted an online webinar to discuss Australia's opportunity in offshore wind and what this important new sector means for the climate, jobs and regional communities. 

The panel features special guest speakers:

- Newcastle Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes
- Penny Howard, Research Officer, Maritime Union of Australia
- Tony Wolfe, Loy Yang coal power station worker
- Tom Quinn, Head of Policy and Research, Beyond Zero Emissions
