My question is for the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. In The Lancet today, one of the world's premier medical journals, there was a study that was released into the human health impacts from global warming, many of which are actually occurring right now. It goes on to say that we are at risk of reversing the health gains of the past 50 years, if no action is taken. I have a fairly straightforward question: does the minister accept the information published in The Lancet that the health impacts from global warming are occurring right now, here in Australia?
