Midnight Oil frontman and environmental campaigner Peter Garrett has urged Labor to stare down the "self-interest" within its ranks and commit to ambitious plans to avoid the "catastrophe" of climate change.

| Former Labor minister Peter Garrett says the party must stare down those within its ranks not committed to acting on climate change. |
Warning that the suburbs of western Sydney and Melbourne are being "crucified on the altar of inaction" and regional and rural communities were "hostage to climate damage", the former Labor minister said the party's true believers are "dying out" and a younger generation of voters will be "more radical and less forgiving" if it fails to act.
