Penny Wong has concluded her speech to the London School of Economics with a Call for Action:
” We have a responsibility to future generations to tackle climate change while we can, and to ensure that they are well equipped to deal with its effects. The pace of climate change is accelerating and so are its effects. It is now more urgent than ever to act on climate change.”
