Australia rated 5th-worst at UN's Morocco climate conference

For the second year in a row, Australia has ranked fifth-last on a climate change performance index. The index compares 58 countries that together are responsible for 90 per cent of the world's carbon emissions. Lower-ranked than Australia are Korea, Kazakhstan, Japan and Saudi Arabia. France, Sweden and the United Kingdom topped the index. But Foreign Minister Julie Bishop claims Australia is making progress when it comes to combating climate change.
