Minister Bredell commented, ‘Climate change modelling shows that annual temperatures are rising, and the number of colder days will decrease. Droughts, floods and heat waves will become more regular, and these trends highlight the need for a coordinated response from the government, tertiary institutions, the private sector and the whole of society to mitigate the impact of climate change.’
