Climate Change in Australia

The Climate Law Bulletin is produced by the Environmental Defender's Office.  The most recent issue contains a summary of Australia's first climate pollution case.  It also summarises the legislation that is currently with the Federal Parliament.  If you are looking at Global Environmental Protection, these bulletins contain useful summaries.  They complement our Hot Topics 63: Climate Change (2007). 

Our Global Environment page of the Legal Studies Research Guide will provide you with additional links and strategies for locating media reports and magazine articles.

Climate Change

The Hot Topic on Climate Change (No 63, 2007) provides an excellent overview of the legal framework for climate change, emissions trading, climate change and its impact on Torres Strait Islander and Pacific communities, and Australia's world heritage areas, climate refugees, the role of the United Nations, human rights and climate change.  It is available in all public libraries.  For additional resources and strategies for locating media reports  and journal articles, have a look at LIAC's Legal Studies Research Guide page on Global Environment.

For additional and more detailed information on climate change and links to useful information, the Australian Parliamentary Library's Online Research Guide on Climate Change is invaluable.
