Mackay’s local rag, The Daily Mercury, got pretty close to the mark with this fun and very apt cartoon in response to our actions over the past two days. At the same time as we’re taking action, regional leaders, including Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, are attending the Pacific Islands Forum. Rudd needs to support Pacific Island nations in their demands on climate change.
The cartoonist gets the problem. Question is, does Rudd?
