I wouldn't be surprised if this article is about the probability of climate induced World War III and publishing the article could increase the risk of war.
I'm willing to trust the judgement of people who've actually read the report on wether or not it should be published.
Or it could risk him not getting re-elected...
This is far more likely imo. I don't trust a single politician on the planet, let alone in Australia, to do anything beneficial for the population without some ulterior motive. The best among us don't go into politics.
If those are the stakes we’re showing little sign of acting on our emissions in accordance.
I think it's much more likely that it just shows that climate change is important and the government has been mismanaging the situation so they want to save face by burying it.
