The Lost Years: Counting the costs of climate inaction in Australia \\ Climate Council

The Climate Council’s new report ‘The Lost Years: Counting the Costs of Climate Inaction in Australia’ has found that the Federal Liberal-National Government has overwhelmingly failed on climate action over its three terms of government.

As Climate Council CEO Amanda McKenzie says “The record is clear, in eight years, the Federal Government’s decisions have exacerbated the climate crisis and they have tried to cover up their policy failings. Australians have lost almost a decade of what should’ve been our moment to take strong and bold action on climate.”

We call on all parties to get emissions plummeting THIS DECADE. There’s no more time to waste.

We should also remember Severn Suzuki and her 1992 speech at Rio. Hard to meet someone who actually knows about even in the climate community.
