Office of National Intelligence (ONI) climate-risk assessment

The Federal Government has been true to its word and completed a national climate risk assessment promised in the lead-up to the last election. It is highly likely that the report will have concluded that the worsening climate crisis presents a grave, and potentially existential, threat to society and human security. The problem is that only a few Cabinet Ministers have been privy to the report. Such a report is critically important for government and agency planning and needs to be publicly released. Unfortunately, despite national media coverage and pressure from climate groups, including DCAN, the report remains behind closed doors.
