Climate change threatens economies, security: report

A CSIRO report has warned climate change will threaten the region's economy and security unless governments and aid agencies start preparing for its impacts.

The two-part CSIRO report was commissioned by a new coalition of aid, church and development groups.

It warns that a two degrees Celsius increase in temperature by 2030 will have a devastating impact in northern Pakistan, India and western China.
