The nightmare is over. The body charged with providing expert climate change advice to the Australian government will at last do exactly that. So how did the Climate Change Authority veer so far off track? And what just changed to fix it? We've got the full lowdown. Also this week, we reveal the extraordinarily large sum of money that renewables could save on a worldwide scale. We've also got the shocking results of a new survey into people's attitudes about the direct threat of climate change, plus there's good, bad and sludgy news on the Australian environmental front. All that and more on The Canary!
