Climate Change
Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges of our time, influencing weather patterns, ecosystems, and the natural processes that sustain life. It drives shifts in temperature, sea levels, and extreme weather events, disrupting environmental stability and resilience. Queensland's climate is changing due to global warming. As the climate continues to shift throughout this century, its impacts on Queenslanders and the environment are expected to become increasingly pronounced.
Indicators
The climate change cross-cutting theme brings together key indicators from all themes in one place, creating a complete picture of the climate and the pressures it faces. By combining this information, readers can better understand how different factors are connected. This approach provides a clearer, more comprehensive view of the complexity of climate systems, their impacts, and the ongoing changes they undergo.
Management responses
Management responses are the actions or initiatives undertaken to protect, maintain and restore environmental assets, as well as those that prevent, mitigate or adapt to changes in the environment. They are generally developed in reaction to the observed or anticipated pressures and impacts, or the state of the environment. They act in a multitude of ways, either individually or, more often, in concert with one another to bring about environmental change.
Case studies
Case studies are a detailed examination of a specific project or program being undertaken by or for the Queensland Government.
