Thom Woodroofe is the author of Power, Prosperity & Planet: Climate & Energy Policy for All. He played a key role in securing the Paris Agreement on climate change in 2015, including helping establish the High Ambition Coalition of progressive nations. He has since worked as chief of staff to former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, for the Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade in Washington DC, and forged a backchannel for US–China climate talks during his time at the Asia Society in New York. Thom studied diplomacy as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University and – thanks to solar power – grew up off-the-grid in regional Victoria.
