UN takes each way bet

THE United Nations says the NSW bushfire crisis is “absolutely” linked to climate change and Tony Abbott’s Direct Action policy is dangerous. UN climate chief Christiana Figueres has told CNN the Abbott government will pay a heavy political and economic price for walking away from Labor’s commitments on climate change. She said;

There was “absolutely” a link between climate change and the fire crisis playing out in NSW.

and then she said;

“The World Meteorological Organisation has not established the direct link between this wildfire and climate change – yet.”

Right…everyone clear on that?
