CSIRO and the Bureau of Meteorology have recently released a report detailing predicted changes to Australia’s environment due to climate change. I haven’t had a chance to read the full report yet but the media release contains some interesting forecasts:
“By 2030 we expect temperatures will rise by about 1ºC over Australia compared with the climate of recent decades,” says one of the report’s authors, CSIRO’s Dr Penny Whetton. “The probability of warming exceeding 1°C is 10-20 per cent for coastal areas and more than 50 per cent for inland regions.”
