Democratic Presidential nominee Tom Steyer says Prime Minister Scott Morrison should "eat his words" on climate change. Mr Steyer, who is currently sitting 8th in the race for the Democratic nomination, has marked climate change as his signature issue and, if elected, he plans to declare a climate emergency on his first day. Speaking with Sky News on the Iowa Caucus trail, the democratic nominee warned Australia needed to change its tune on climate change. “I know what’s been going on in Australia and I think [Scott Morrison] should eat his words," he said. "Australia is actually the example of what we need to avoid."
