    IPPC climate change – the fallout

    News

    Reaction to last week’s major new climate change report from the IPPC has varied from the hopeful to the absurd.

    The Executive Director of the Aldersgate Group highlights the opportunities that stem from the “ambitious plan of action” that is needed to deliver on the challenge faced.

    The pro-fracking government deflected its response by asking the Committee on Climate Change whether the government on whether the UK should set a date for a net zero emissions target.

    A leader in The Economist emphasizes the importance of the report, and the world’s reaction to it.

    With either breathtaking ignorance or deliberate misinformation (you decide), Donald Trump responded by saying the climate “could change back again” and accusing climate scientists of being politically motivated.

    In this article, climate scientist and mathematician Emily Shuckburgh of the British Antarctic Survey shares her tips on what we can do to help the planet’s health, and our own.
