SUMMARY:Australia’s Environmental Data Mosaic: from complexity to national advantage
DESCRIPTION:Australia’s environmental evidence is expanding faster than our ability to assemble it. Satellites\, sensors\, ranger programs\, Defence monitoring and research infrastructures are generating unprecedented data. But fragmentation means critical insights remain locked in silos. \nMajor national decisions now depend on rapid\, trusted environmental intelligence. From the upcoming State of the Environment Report to Defence estate stewardship\, disaster‑risk planning and state land management\, organisations need data that is findable\, interoperable and ready for use at scale. \nThe cost of inaction is rising. Without a connected environmental data ecosystem\, Australia risks slower responses\, weaker accountability and missed opportunities to build sovereign capability in environmental intelligence. \nThis webinar brings together three speakers to confront a central question: how do we turn a fragmented environmental data landscape into a connected\, resilient\, national‑scale capability that serves reporting\, operations and long‑term stewardship? If you care about the long-term health of Australia’s land and the institutions that steward it\, this is a conversation you will not want to miss.

SUMMARY:CSIRO Webinar: From data to action: new insights into Australia's circular economy
DESCRIPTION:This event will bring together the latest research\, state experience\, and national policy to explore what Australia’s first comprehensive circular economy metrics mean for how we plan\, implement\, and measure progress towards a circular economy. \nYou’ll hear from: \n\nCSIRO presenting key insights from Australia’s first sub-national material flow and circularity accounts\, covering all states and territories from 2010 to 2024\, including what the data reveals about material demand\, waste\, emissions\, and circularity performance across every jurisdiction.\nPolicymakers from South Australia and Victoria sharing their firsthand experience of using circular economy metrics in the policy process\, including what works\, what’s hard\, and what the new data can contribute.\nThe Australian Department of Climate Change\, Energy\, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) on why robust metrics are essential for national circular economy planning and implementation\, and how this new evidence base fits within Australia’s broader circular economy framework.

SUMMARY:HILT CRC Public Webinar: Technology pathways for green iron and low-carbon steelmaking
DESCRIPTION:Join HILT CRC for a public webinar showcasing four iron and steel technology providers – and HILT CRC partners – working on practical pathways to decarbonise iron and steel production.\nSpeakers from Primetals Technologies\, Metix\, Tenova and Hatch will each provide a technical deep dive into their technologies\, alongside a broader view of future green iron and low-carbon steelmaking pathways. \nFor Primetals\, Gerald Wimmer will provide a technical overview of its work supporting lower-emissions iron and steel production. The presentation will consider practical pathways for integrating new process technologies into future green iron and steel value chains\, including the implications for feedstocks\, energy supply\, plant configuration and scale-up. \nGerhard Terblanche will present for Metix. As SMS group’s centre of competence for reduction furnace applications\, Metix brings deep expertise in pyrometallurgical furnace technologies\, submerged arc furnaces\, high-temperature process engineering and advanced electric smelting solutions. \nTenova will provide a multi-speaker overview of its technologies across the iron and steel value chain. Markus Dorndorf will introduce the company’s direct reduced iron (DRI) and electric arc furnace (EAF) technologies; Andre Esterhuizen will discuss submerged arc furnace technology\, including iBLUE® (which combines direct reduction with arc furnace-based hot metal production)\, residual valorisation and slag granulation; and Alessandro Della Rocca will address downstream technologies\, including reheating furnaces. \nFor Hatch\, Simon Nitschke\, Managing Director\, Equipment Technology\, will present on Hatch’s work in green iron and steel\, including the NeoSmelt electric smelting furnace (ESF) design. \nPresentations from each company will include an audience Q&A after each session\, with a panel discussion to close.

SUMMARY:Report Release: Western Australia’s Resources Sector in Transition
DESCRIPTION:The Bankwest Curtin Economics Centre invites you to a special sundowner for the release of our latest report\, Western Australia’s Resources Sector in Transition\nWestern Australia’s economy remains deeply anchored in its resources sector\, with iron ore continuing to underpin exports\, public revenues\, employment and living standards. But the global operating environment is shifting rapidly. Decarbonisation\, technological disruption and geopolitical fragmentation are reshaping resource-based economies worldwide. \nThis new Focus on Industry report examines how WA’s resources sector is adapting to these pressures\, and what this means for economic diversification\, fiscal sustainability and long-term prosperity. While the sector remains a source of strength\, it also faces growing structural pressures\, including rising costs\, infrastructure constraints\, concentrated supply chains and exposure to volatile global markets. The report also assesses the opportunities – and limits – of downstream processing\, critical minerals and low-emissions industries.
