Climate News: Australian farmers defenceless against extreme weather events, Peter Mailer writes in The Guardian

from Climate Conversations · host Robert McLean

Pete Mailer has written in The Guardian about how Australian farmers are defenceless in the face of extreme weather events: "Australian farmers have no defences left against ‘extraordinary’ weather events that have become all too common". Writing in The Sydney Morning Herald and The Melbourne Age, David Crowe reports: "$600m for disaster relief services after ‘back-to-back’ climate emergencies". Back at The Guardian, Graham Readfearn tells us: "Bureau of Meteorology was ‘cowering in the corner’ on climate crisis, former staff claim". Climate educator, Blanche Verily, has written a wonderful small book."Learning to Live with Climate Change" (pictured) and it is available as a free E-book. Bob Berwyn, writing on Inside Climate News, that: " ‘Timber Cities’ Might Help Decarbonize the World."
