JoinMichael Lester on Radio Northern Beaches as he interviews retired Admiral Chris Barrie, former Australian Defence Force Chief, about the release of Australia’s first climate risk assessment. Just days before the government’s Paris commitments, Chris explains why climate change, not China, poses the greatest threat to our national security and calls for a major shift in planning, energy, and budget priorities.
