Biography
Guy Pearse worked for various Liberal politicians, as a lobbyist for numerous industries, and as a consultant to the Australian Greenhouse Office. He was speechwriter for Australian Prime Minister John Howard's first environment minister, Robert Hill. While studying at Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard University in the mid-1990s, Pearse worked on the advance staff of then U.S. Vice President Al Gore.
Pearse's doctoral research at the Australian National University focussed on the influence of the carbon lobby on the Howard government. This thesis became the basis for the "Greenhouse Mafia" episode of ABC's Four Corners in February 2006.
