Desperate Pacific islands at risk of sinking beneath the sea say Australia is "stuck in the Dark Ages" by relying on fossil fuels, in response to alarming data showing this nation's energy emissions have hit record highs.
The outcry from Australia's smallest neighbours comes just weeks after Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull visited Samoa and reportedly promised Pacific leaders that he understood "very clearly" the threat of sea level rise to low-lying islands.
