CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY　

Changes to Australia’s climate are being accelerated by human activity. It has been projected that:

  • average temperatures will continue to increase with fewer cold extremes and longer and more intense heatwaves
  • annual rainfall will decrease while extreme rainfall events that lead to flooding are likely to become more intense
  • our region will experience more frequent and extreme fire danger days
  • sea levels will continue to rise throughout and beyond the 21st Century with our oceans warming and become more acidic.

It is widely acknowledged that action is required to mitigate and adapt to climate change.

POLICY STATEMENT

The City of Marion recognises the importance of climate change; the impact of human activity on the composition of the global atmosphere; and the urgent need to mitigate the production of greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change.
