Australia makes the news - for the wrong reason

Australia got a mention in Climate Reality's Top 10 Climate Stories of 2013. Unfortunately, it was for action against the climate.

Other stories were about the increasing effects, and cost, of climate change - and other countries taking positive action to reduce it.

Except number five - which was about Australia's government backing away from action on climate change.

Climate Reality described it as "It’s been a case of one step forward, two steps back for climate action Down Under."
