abbott's coal powered future in strife, page-4

In October 2013 as bushfires burned in NSW, the UN's Christiana Figueres was reported to have referred to the situation as a global climate change concern:

"... The United Nations says the New South Wales bushfires are an example of "the doom and gloom" the world may be facing without vigorous action on climate change.

The executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, Christiana Figueres, says the fires prove the world is "already paying the price of carbon". ..."

Supporters of Tony Abbott poured scorn on Adam Bandt for raising concerns about the Coalition's environmental actions in what now appears to have been them turning their backs to the UN.

"... Her comments come after deputy Greens leader Adam Bandt was accused of politicising the bushfires, when he claimed the Government's climate policies would lead to more fires in the future. ..."

Well as of the decision by Deutsche Bank to refuse funding for expansion of the Abbot Point Terminal it appears the shoe is on the other foot.
