From the Paper:

"The Australian Government (2005), in an effort to better battle further environmental damage to its land, either by its own actions or through the actions of others, acknowledges that for the last several years and decades, "the national and international focus has predominantly been on strategies to reduce greenhouse emissions," and that despite its own readiness to fix the environment, there has been on the part of others "an unwillingness to devote serious attention to adaptation strategies." The problems which the Australian Government (2005) has identified and begun to battle have resulted in such environmental and weather effects as "an increase in annual national average temperatures..., more heatwaves and fewer frosts..., more frequent El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events..., reductions in average rainfall and run-off..., more severe wind speeds in cyclones..., an increase in severe weather events..., and a change in ocean currents.""
