Boris Johnson compares climate crisis to a James Bond 'doomsday device' in his COP26 opening speech:
"A red digital clock ticks down remorselessly to a detonation that will end human life as we know it, and we are roughly the same position, my fellow global leaders, as James Bond today. "And the clock is ticking to the furious rhythm of hundreds of billions of pistons and turbines and engines with which we are pumping carbon into the air faster and faster, record output and quilting the earth in a suffocating blanket of CO2.
Signs advertising the UN Climate Change Conference hang from lamp posts near to the where COP26 is being held in Glasgow. – added: "Let us think about those beady eyes, watching us around the world." Others delivering speeches as part of the opening ceremony included Prince Charles and Sir David Attenborough.Leaders at COP26, which has been described as the last chance to save the planet, are expected to reiterate their commitments to the 2015 Paris Agreement – which include hitting net zero by the middle of the century and keeping global warming below 2C, with a target of 1.5C.
