Australia at risk


Climatic changes are a huge threat to Australia. The changes are being caused due to their high standard of living. Australians have being fighting against the bushfires as an effect of climatic change. With the increase in these changes another threat that they will be facing or have started facing is flood.The beautiful beaches will be destroyed as the water levels have started to increase. The coastal areas are the one which will face this problem first. Million homes will be under the risk of losing their home and lives.  Not only the flood but also there are chances of drought and heatwaves.http://www.abc.net.au/7.30/content/2010/s3018158.htm#

Australia generates it electricity from the thermal power. This process causes a lot of air pollution. At the same time it causes loss of fuels. It is continent with water on all side, than why are they not using water to generate electricity. The government must taking necessary steps to avoid such a huge disaster. It is their responsibility to look after the welfare of the people. The people also seems to feel reluctant about it. They are so used to lived in the lavish life style that they cannot think beyond it. Both have to take the initiative to reduce the pollution so that they can live a better life and continue enjoying the natural beauty.
