Combating climate change is a global emergency. RICHARD HEBBERT looks Britain’s place in this struggle

THIS year has seen the continuing march of climate change and environmental devastation, in the wildfires in southern Europe and the US, the storms across the world, the flooding in Libya and the Indian subcontinent, drought in east Africa, the shrinking of the Antarctic ice field, collapsing Atlantic Ocean circulation, thawing tundra, record temperatures in the oceans and on land.
The human cost is to put millions of lives at risk from extreme temperatures, flooding or failing food production and supply.
Billions will fall out of the “climate niche” in which humanity has lived for millennia and those who survive will have no option other than to try to find somewhere else to live.
