Malcolm Turnbull’s campaign to change Australia’s energy future: Part Two

Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is determined to change Australia’s energy future.

He’s teamed up with mining magnate and billionaire Andrew ‘Twiggy’ Forrest, to lobby here and overseas for governments to adopt green hydrogen energy. Mr Turnbull says it’s Australia’s future….and we can lead the way globally in reducing emissions and contributing to reversing global warming.

Mr Turnbull will head to the UN’s climate summit in Glasgow in November. We’re still not sure whether Prime Minister Scott Morrison will attend.

In the second instalment of our interview, we ask about the right-wing climate change deniers….and if Mr Turnbull will resent Scott Morrison’s moves to take Australia to net zero emissions, a move that ultimately ended Mr Turnbull’s prime ministership.
