- Title
ADDRESSING CARBON AND CLIMATE CHANGE THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT: A CASE STUDY OF WESTERN AUSTRALIAN LNG AND THE "BURRUP HUB" PROJECT.
- Authors
HAMILTON, RUBY; VERSTEGEN, PIERS
- Abstract
Where specific climate change policy and legal frameworks are lacking, environmental impact assessment (EIA) processes are being relied upon to understand and address climate impacts of major projects. This paper examines the adequacyand outcomes of State and Commonwealth EIA processes as applied to the rapidly expanding liquified natural gas (LNG) industry and the "Burrup Hub" development. It offers practical and legal perspectives on how EIA can (and must) better address carbon and climate change.
