The Critical Decade: Report Links Australia’s Extreme Weather To Climate Change
A new report confirms that the extreme heat waves, floods, droughts and wildfires that have wracked Australia over the past decade have been exacerbated by climate change.
The report, commissioned by the Australian government’s Climate Commission, makes clear that these weather events will only get worse in the coming years, and warns that health and emergency professionals as well as citizens must prepare for their impacts now.
The study’s chief commissioner Tim Flannery said the study’s results mean Australia needs to take action to slow climate change.
