(—) (): Last week, in its three-yearly World Heritage Outlook, the IUCN downgraded the outlook for the Great Barrier Reef to the most severe listing possible, 'critical', due to the threat posed by climate change and water quality. Next year the World Heritage Committee will, once again, consider whether to list the Great Barrier Reef as World Heritage in Danger. This is the last warning that Australia's going to get before a potential 'in danger' listing that would decimate the tourism industry. Will you treat this as a wake-up call or not? (Time expired)
