Lawyer David Barnden is helping ordinary citizens take on some of the country’s biggest financial services companies and government over their handling of climate-change-related risks. Barnden represented eight young litigants in the renowned Sharma case, arguing that the Minister for the Environment has a duty of care to protect young Australians from the physical harms of climate change. 

David Barnden is recorded live in conversation with Yaara Bou Melhem at Powerhouse Ultimo. For more information go to 100climateconversations.com/david-barnden
