With 93% Of GBR Bleached & Dying, Oz AG "Not At All Convinced" Climate Science Valid

Attorney-General George Brandis has questioned the science of climate change, saying he's not "at all" convinced it is settled. Labor has seized on comments by the senior Turnbull government minister that there were a number of views about the cause of climate change, arguing it proves the deep climate scepticism in the Coalition.

"It doesn't seem to me that the science is settled at all," Senator Brandis told Parliament on Tuesday during debate on the tabling of documents relating to the CSIRO.

He was addressing a recent CSIRO restructure - undertaken internally - which will move the focus away from collecting climate data. About 200 jobs are at risk, although the overall head count is expected to return to current levels within two years.

Senator Brandis said he was not embarking on the climate debate himself, but challenging the illogical position of the Labor Party. "But I'm not a scientist, and I'm agnostic really on that question."
