The Planning Institute of Australia has reaffirmed its commitment to climate action, releasing a new suite of updated climate change policies.

The new Climate Change Series comprises a new policy statement and two supporting discussion papers:

• Position Statement: Planning in a Changing Climate
• Discussion Paper: Role of planning in adapting to a changing climate
• Discussion Paper: Role of planning in reducing carbon

These policies aim to help planners reduce carbon in buildings and places and will shape better decisions for cities and towns exposed to the hazards of a changing climate.
