Climate scientists blast Scott Morrison’s ‘ludicrous’ UN speech

Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s speech to the United Nations in which he boasted about Australia’s climate policies has been picked apart by leading environmental scientists.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison addresses
the 74th session of the United Nations
General Assembly. 

Speaking to world leaders in New York, Mr Morrison said Australia was on track to meet its emissions reduction targets and that it was unlikely he would update them despite this being a requirement by the Paris agreement’s five-yearly review process.

He also accused Australian and international media outlets for “misrepresenting” the country’s climate change record.

But the Climate Council, an independent non-profit organisation aimed at providing accurate climate change information to the Australian public, has blasted Mr Morrison’s speech as “colossal bullsh-t”.
