Summary:

"The past four years have been the four hottest years on record for global surface temperature, continuing a long-term warming trend. Climate change is increasing the frequency and/or severity of extreme weather, with 2018 being a year of wild weather both globally and in Australia. The impacts of extreme weather during 2018 have been damaging and costly. To slow and eventually stop the increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather, Australia needs an effective national climate policy that drives down greenhouse gas pollution deeply and rapidly as part of a global effort."--Publisher.
