The impacts of the climate crisis are proving much worse than predicted, and governments must act more urgently to adapt to them or face global disaster, the UK president of the UN climate talks has warned on the eve of a landmark new scientific assessment of the climate.
Alok Sharma, who led the Cop26 climate summit last year, said: “The changes in the climate we are seeing today are affecting us much sooner and are greater than we originally thought. The impacts on our daily lives will be increasingly severe and stark. We will be doing ourselves and our populations a huge disservice if we fail to prepare now, based on the very clear science before us.”
In a report to be published on Monday, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is expected to show that droughts, floods and heatwaves will increase in frequency and intensity, with devastating consequences, and all parts of the globe will be affected.
Sharma also said climate talks must continue this year at international forums such as the G20, despite Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Russia is a member of the G20, after being ejected from the G8 over its annexation of Crimea. Sharma said he spoke to his Russian counterpart some weeks ago before the current escalation, but they have not spoken since.

Absolute Nonsense.
Bump!
Somebody should inform the climate cultists that unless we focus on what is truly important right now, there will be the mother of all hockey stick graphs very soon. I wonder what 18 million degrees Fahrenheit will do to the climate?
Me thinks Amolk is full of tee pee waste
I wonder which megalomaniac klepto billionaire told him to say that?
“proving much worse than predicted”
Not sure about that…the predictions which haven’t happened were pretty dire
There have been numerous predictions over the years about what’s coming climate-wise, and none of them have been accurate. If they (the climate “experts”) even had a clue about what is going to happen, there would be one model which would be somewhat accurate. Alas, there are numerous models, and none of them are accurate.
Global Warming/Climate Change is simply the greatest scam in the history of the world.
I am burning more wood in my stove. Just doing my part.
Europe has NO gas and NO oil.
They better build some more nukes, solar and wind ASAP !
Who the f*** is Alok Sharma? Some aboriginal medicine man? I think we’ve had all the crap we need from Alok and the retarded Greta T the Swedish meatball. They have driven us to the brink of nuclear war with the Russkis with their climate change nonsense.
Voodoo “science”. If you don’t pay off the witch doctor, he won’t throw the magic dust into the fire and then the monsters will come out of the forest at night and get you.
That’s what this climate BS crap is like and all about. Pay them money.
