The CSIRO today published the 2019 Australian National Outlook, containing the key message that Australia’s long-term future is at risk unless we take bold action now.
The research contrasted two models of Australia, the first being the current baseline of slow decline, and the second an outlook vision scenario representing what Australia could achieve.
The report outlines five major shifts in industry, urban, energy, land and culture to achieve the outcomes of the vision approach, which could potentially achieve increased wages, GDP, and population, while reducing urban congestion.
