The Australian Academy of Science has endorsed the Science20 (S20) 2025 statement, Climate change and well-being, reinforcing a collective commitment and consensus-driven call to action for preserving lives and boosting global sustainability.

The communiqué was developed after an in-person meeting in Pretoria, South Africa, in February, attended by Academy Fellow Dr Surinder Singh and finalised with feedback and contributions from experts across the member academies, including Academy Foreign Secretary, Professor Frances Separovic AO, Professor Andy Pitman AO of UNSW, and Professor Hilary Bambrick of the Australian National University.
