About this listen

In this episode of Speaking of Social Justice, Dr Julie Macken explores the alarming findings of the federal government’s climate impact report and the hidden intelligence reports they chose not to release. While Australians were told about rising temperatures, collapsing fish stocks, and dire environmental futures, the government kept quiet about the geopolitical fallout across our region. Macken unpacks what this silence means: displacement of entire nations like Tuvalu and Kiribati, food and water crises in Indonesia, and the prospect of hundreds of millions facing unliveable conditions near our doorstep. Her call is urgent: Australia needs a real national security plan and not just for defence, but for climate collapse, biodiversity loss, displacement, cyber warfare, and inequality. Without it, the choices ahead could be catastrophic. This isn’t about fear. It’s about preparation, compassion, and the kind of country we want to be when the crisis hits.
