Small Pacific island nations are asking the Morrison government not to use so-called "carryover credits" in its bid to meet carbon emissions targets.

 

Fijian Prime Minister, Frank Bainimarama, has taken aim at Australia, as the pacific nations strengthen their action against climate change.

 

On Tuesday the countries signed a joint statement known as the Nadi Bay Declaration, which calls for halting carry-over credits as well as a halt to new coal mining projects and the phasing out of coal-fired power generation.
