Climate change has become a major issue in Australia due to drastic climate events since the turn of the century that have focused government and public attention.
Water sources in the South Eastern areas of Australia have depleted due to increasing population in urban areas (rising demand) coupled with climate change factors such as persistent prolonged drought .
All federal and state governments have explicitly recognised that climate change is being caused by greenhouse gas emissions, in conformity with the scientific opinion on climate change.
Sectors of the population are actively campaigning against new coal mines and coal fired power stations because of their concern about the effects of global warming on Australia
