Sunak: More Needed To Tackle Climate Change

THE Prime Minister has said that "more must be done" to tackle climate change, after negotiators secured a last-minute deal at Cop27 in Egypt.

Rishi Sunak, who attended the global climate summit earlier this month in Egypt after originally deciding not to attend, said in a brief statement: "I welcome the progress made at Cop27, but there can be no time for complacency.

"Keeping the 1.5 degrees commitment alive is vital to the future of our planet.

"More must be done." The slogan of "keeping 1.5 alive" dominated discussions at the summit in Glasgow last year, when Cop26 President Alok Sharma and the UK delegation steered efforts to limit global warming.
