He has over 100 scholarly publications, including a multi-award-winning co-edited book - Australian Environmental Planning: Challenges and Future Prospects (Routledge).

  2. his career highlights and motivations 
  3. key barriers for Australia in adapting to climate change
  4. nature based solutions & innovative solutions to adapting to climate change
