UN Bonn summit ‘straying from climate’

Environment Editor at The Australian Graham Lloyd says the United Nations’ priorities are ‘straying from climate’ to include a much broader range of issues. Speaking to Sky News host Peta Credlin, Mr Lloyd says the climate focus is morphing into a desire to meet the Millennium Development Goals, with an added focus on the current extinction crisis and biodiversity. Australian officials have met at the Bonn climate summit to answer questions on the government’s climate change response, facing scrutiny on how the country is tackling global warming by addressing gender and indigenous issues.
