Australia tried to water down climate change resolution at Pacific Islands Forum: leader
Australia attempted to water down a resolution on climate change agreed by country representatives at the Pacific Islands Forum, a leader attending the event has claimed.
Pacific leaders issued the Boe declaration on Wednesday night, calling climate change “the single greatest threat to the livelihoods, security and wellbeing of the peoples of the Pacific” at the conclusion of the Pacific Islands Forum, which has been held in Nauru this week.
However the forum communique – which focused heavily on climate change and the need for emissions reductions – was endorsed by leaders “with qualification”.
