South West Western Australia (SWWA) has not escaped and is acknowledged as a highly vulnerable region to the impacts of climate change. Its temperature is already 0.8°C higher than in 1910; however, the most notable impact is a 10 to 15 per cent reduction in rainfall since 1975, which has had a major impact on water supplies and industries such as agriculture.

The National Risk Assessment Framework was designed to improve collective knowledge about natural hazard risk in Australia so that support can be provided to emergency risk management and natural hazard mitigation. The natural hazards covered in the framework are bushfires, earthquakes, floods, storms, tropical cyclones, storm surges, landslides, tsunami, tornados and meteorite strikes

The report concluded that adaptation then is necessary and will bring benefits. The report found that we need to increase the planning capacity of industries, communities and regions so they can engage more effectively in adaptation research and development. We need to communicate our knowledge and develop practical adaptation tools.

Australian Federal Government website on impacts and adaptation. The early impacts of climate change have already appeared and scientists believe that further impacts are inevitable, no matter what happens to future global greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the decisions we make today about infrastructure, health, water management, agriculture, biodiversity and housing will have lasting consequences. It is therefore important to begin planning now for the impacts of climate change in the future
