The kids calling out CEOs + Aussie visionary passes away

The Briefing

About this episode

While climate change can feel overwhelming, a bold group of young Australians is turning anxiety into action. They call themselves the Future Council - and they’ve travelled the world challenging global leaders and top CEOs to do better.

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling speaks with filmmaker Damon Gameau and 15-year-old climate activist Ruby Rodgers about their powerful new documentary and the movement they hope will inspire the rest of us to act.

Headlines: Australia has escaped a feared jump in US tariffs, A Western Australian woman found guilty of giving birth to a baby that was later discovered in a freezer has avoided going to prison, and Father Chris Riley, founder of charity Youth Off the Streets, has died aged 70.
