climate: Over the past five years Australia's standing in the Pacific has declined dramatically because of an unwillingness to take strong action on climate change, according to The Guardian. It's not as if the Pacific hasn't been clear. A successful step-up must include stopping our own pollution, defending the sovereignty of our friends in the Pacific and offering a safety net to those who may need it. From female fishers to the Fijian prime minister, to remote communities in the Solomon Islands, climate change is a top-order issue. If action isn't taken, in 40 years there are people in Pacific island states who may have nowhere to go. It's about the very survival of people, nations and cultures.
