  1. Average temperature in WA has risen by 0.5o C since settlement.  If the sometimes suggested temperature increase of 2.0oC by 2100 does occur, what will be the consequences for WA?
  2. Considering current trends and predicted climate change in WA, what opportunities do these present?
  3. A graph presented by CSIRO shows that if CO2 levels peak or are reduced, sea level will continue to rise for over a 1000 years and temperature will continue to rise for at least 100 years.  Why should we bother about emissions reduction?  Should adaptation to inevitable change be the preferred approach?
