Towards climate safe homes

As things stand, our poor-quality housing stock is contributing to the problem of climate change. But as our report shows, the housing sector can become an important part of the solution with the right mix of policies.

Houses last a long time, so it's essential that any decisions we make now about building standards take us towards this long-term goal. Focusing particularly on Victoria, we make a convincing case for raising the required standard for new homes and renovations, and we recommend key solutions for the state and federal governments.
