Barbados is looking forward to building stronger relations with Australia, particularly on matters related to climate change.

Barbados’ Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary for Climate Change, Law of the Sea & Small Island Developing States, Elizabeth Thompson, highlighted this during a recent courtesy call with Australia’s High Commissioner to Barbados, Bruce Lendon, at Government Headquarters.

Ambassador Thompson raised concerns about potential wipe out events brought on by climate change, that could devastate Caribbean countries.

In response, Mr. Lendon said climate change was also an issue in Australia, and noted the country was sensitive to issues raised by the Ambassador.
