What happens if we don’t act to climate change?

THIS year Australians have suffered through one of the worst droughts in living memory, bushfires and a heatwave that saw hundreds of flying foxes "boiled alive".

It also saw the publication of one of the most comprehensive reviews of climate science which delivered a "wildly alarming" report about where the world was headed.

Actions taken in the next 12 years until 2030 will be critical in order to have a chance of keeping global warming to 1.5C.

Temperatures are likely to rise by 1.5C between 2030 and 2052 if they continue to increase at the current rate.

Labor has said it would not support new coal projects and has a 45 per cent emissions reduction target by 2030 and 50 per cent renewable energy target.

It looks like it will be up to the Australian people to decide what they want.
