What will the climate crisis mean for Australia What is the price of our inertia Australia is in peril. Do we truly grasp the impact of a warming planet - in particular, what it will mean for the sunburnt country This searing essay by a leading climate scientist takes aim at the folly of "adaptation" rather than cutting emissions, and at government policy inertia.
