The Albanese government is facing calls to release a declassified version of a secret report into the security threats caused by the climate crisis, in the same way it released the defence strategic review.

The Greens are seeking to use a Senate procedure to push for transparency, saying the security report will help parliamentarians to “weigh up predicted wars, water shortages and supply chain collapses against every new coal and gas approval”.
