rime Minister Malcolm
Turnbull's "courage has deserted him" on climate action, respected
former government adviser Bernie Fraser says, predicting the federal
Coalition's policies will fail to meet even modest targets to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions.

| Bernie Fraser - new PM has lost his climate courage. |
The criticism comes as Senator David Leyonhjelm signalled a
crossbench revolt if the Coalition, whose attitude to renewable energy has
become more favourable since the leadership change, reneges on a move to ban
government investment in wind and household solar.
Mr Fraser, an ex-Treasury head and former Reserve Bank
governor, resigned as chairman of the government's Climate Change Authority
this month, two years before his tenure was due to end.
