The Push To Ditch Net Zero Targets & The New Way To Think About Getting Older

The Quicky

About this episode

There's a growing push from some politicians to scrap Australia's net zero targets, but what would that actually mean for our climate commitments and energy future?

Plus, forget lifespan, we're exploring the science of "joyspan" and why maximising joy, purpose and connection might be the real secret to ageing well.

And in headlines today a man who killed four people with an assault rifle at a Midtown Manhattan office tower carried a note with him that appeared to blame the National Football League for his degenerative brain disease, An appeals court is set to decide today whether a community sentence given to the police officer who fatally tasered 95-year-old Clare Nowland was "manifestly inadequate" requiring jail-time instead; Australian children will be barred from accessing YouTube after the government confirmed the video-sharing website will fall under its social media ban; An estimated 65,000 people turned out in central London to celebrate the English women's soccer team after their 2025 Euros win; A source has confirmed to People that Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are dating
