The security report has been buried for 3 years. " 1.5 million Australians who will potentially be inundated and have to move, what does that mean [...] for all of our neighbours "

Nothing will be spared on the Australian coasts due to rising sea levels. Even more will be happening to all the low-lying neighboring nations.

Are Melbourne and Sydney low lying?

They are. All the major cities are on the ocean.

Those populations are 11 million, so not the 1.5 million he says will have to move.

Presumably the entire city wouldn't be affected but perhaps 10% would?
