You should just concentrate on working out what extreme weather is.
Climate change will result in more frequent and intense extreme weather events across Australia, resulting in greater property, personal and economic damage, and hardship for Australian communities.
This warning was released today in the second edition of the Severe Weather in a Changing Climate report, from IAG, Australia’s largest general insurance company, and the US-based National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
The updated report incorporates new research and feedback from the scientific community and reinforces the predictions from the original report, which show that extreme bushfires, storms, hail and floods are becoming more frequent and intense in a warmer world – and the increase in global temperatures to date is already influencing these events and impacting communities now.
