Summary:

"2019-20 was an exceptionally intense period for climate-fuelled extreme weather, with heavy costs felt in Australia and around the world. Some extreme weather events show 'tipping point' behaviour when a critical level of heat or drought triggers a massive, devastating event. Ignoring climate change is deadly. Australians are now paying the price for our own and the world's failure to reduce emissions quickly enough or deeply enough. No developed country has more to lose from climate change-fuelled extreme weather, or more to gain as the world transforms to a zero-carbon economy, than Australia does."--Publisher.
