Simon Baker’s message should be a wake up call for everyone.
Climate change is causing extreme events all over the planet.
It’s hard to believe Australian politicians from both Labor & Liberal Parties are still not taking the climate science seriously.
Future generations of Australians will never understand how we ignored the warnings.
Scientists, economists, doctors are doing what they can to create awareness.
This week in France leaders from all over the world came together to demand climate action and plan for a carbon neutral economy. The One Planet Summit was ignored by Australian politicians & most of the Australian media.
If we are to limit global warming to 2C we must cease using fossil fuels by 2050.
Investing in new coal mines is reckless, it completely ignores the science & will most likely be the end of the Great Barrier Reef putting 70,000 jobs in Tourism at risk.
The threat to humanity from air pollution is also ignored.
A recent report from the World Health Organization said the 500,000 babies die every year from air pollution a large percentage of that due to burning coal.
Using the atmosphere as a garbage dump for carbon dioxide when we use fossil fuels has to end.
Putting a price on carbon is the most cost effective way to solve the problem.
