Bedfellows ignore the facts, become political about the doona and subsequently uncomfortable


Facts, politics and good sense are rarely comfortable bedfellows.

Climate change is an undeniable fact and good sense suggests we act quickly to respond as best we can, but our politicians continue to procrastinate.

Australia’s PM, Tony Abbott is on record as saying climate change “is crap” and is see the international green fund as just socialism by another name.

His reticence, and by implication Australia’s, to do anything about responding to climate change, has raised the ire of many and now with 2014 being the hottest year in modern history, the calls for action of becoming louder.
