"In an address to the National Press Club this month, Home Affairs Minister
Clare O'Neil expressed deep concern about the national security implications of
climate change.

“When Home Affairs was created, the discussion about climate change and
national security was largely academic. Indeed, it was derided by the former
government,” O'Neil said. “Just five years on, climate change is a recognised,
growing part of Australia’s national security picture.”

Such a grave threat requires a flexible, nuanced and comprehensive national
response. It should recognise the complex risks associated with cascading
natural disasters, and draw on the knowledge and experience of all
Australians."
