This event marks the presentation of the Dow Sustainability Program report, a summation of the project's findings and recommendations.
With generous support from the Dow Chemical Company, the Dow Sustainability Program was launched in 2010 with the ambition of developing public policy solutions to sustainability challenges facing Australia and the United States by drawing on the expertise and experiences of both countries. Five key challenges were identified as fields that could benefit from this approach: alternative transport fuels; soil carbon and soil security; groundwater management; water-energy trade-offs in climate policy; and the urban environment. The Program has made an important contribution to the development of new policy in each of these principal areas of focus.
