Climate change warnings
The IPCC's recent report has highlighted five key risk areas that face the most change due to global warming and therefore need the quickest response; these are coral reefs, the Arctic, mangroves, small scale fisheries and tourism
Carbon emissions continue
Despite efforts to reduce emissions, it appears that carbon dioxide pollution from the energy sector has grown again; experts say that this is worrying news for recent emissions goals
Habitat destruction in Australia
Australia's environmental laws appear to have loop holes that have allowed 7.5million hectares of threatened species habitat to be destroyed; it would seem that few assessments were carried out and little to no enforcement steps had been taken before destroying land
