The Impact of Climate Change on Australia

The ABC has produced an excellent five-part series on the expected impact of climate change on different parts of Australia.

The first topic in the series is rising seas: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-14/how-will-rising-seas-impact-australia/4460688

The next topics are:

Part 2: What effect will climate change have on agriculture and food production? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-15/climate-change-will-force-farmers-to-adapt-csiro-says/4464506

Part 3: What effect will climate change have on health in the Pacific? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-16/humans-to-feel-heat-of-warmer-future/4466276

Part 4: How will climate change affect biodiversity and ecosystems? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-17/global-warming-to-threaten-australian-wildlife/4468026

Part 5: How will climate change affect Australia's oceans and reefs? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-18/warming-to-put-oceans-and-reefs-in-hot-water/4470104

Following the series is highly recommended for learning about the important issue of climate change and the language needed for spoken or written discussion of this very "hot" (!!) topic.
