Energy and the Energy Transition webinar series

1. Introduction and Overview

Energy has a transformational impact on the quality of human life.  It impacts every facet of what we do and how we live making energy one of the most important issues of our time.  We require nothing short of a complete transformation of how we produce, transport and consume energy. However, energy, the environment and the economy are intimately linked and the four pillars of energy security (i.e., affordability, availability, reliability and sustainability) must be maintained.

Ultimately, there is no one‐size‐fits‐all approach to the clean energy transition.  Plans need to reflect countries’ differing stages of economic development. Ultimately, the transition to net zero is for and about people.  Citizens must be active participants in the transition process, making them feel part of the transition and not simply subject to it.

This webinar series covers the new Version 9.0 Australian Curriculum (Earth and Space Sciences), namely, AC9S9U03, AC9S9H03, AC9S9H04 (Year 9), AC9S10U04, AC9S10H02, AC9S10I08 (Year 10).

This webinar will take no more than 45-60 minutes of your time. Extra time for Q&A can follow as required.

All attendees will receive a certificate of attendance from the Australian Science Teachers Association (ASTA).
