GLASGOW, UK, – British Prime Minister Boris Johnson warned world leaders, who are participating in the UN COP 26, of doomsday due to the climate change, the UK government said in a statement.
Addressing the COP 26 opening ceremony in Glasgow, Johnson said the clock is ticking to the furious rhythm of hundreds of billions of pistons and turbines and furnaces and engines with which we are pumping carbon into the air faster and faster- record outputs and quilting the earth in an invisible and suffocating blanket of CO2.
Johnson noted: “Raising the temperature of the planet with a speed and an abruptness that is entirely manmade and we know what the scientists tell us and we have learned not to ignore them.”
“The worse it gets and the higher the price when we are eventually forced by catastrophe to act because humanity has long since run down the clock on climate change. It’s one minute to midnight on that doomsday clock and we need to act now. If we don’t get serious about climate change today, it will be too late for our children to do so tomorrow,”
The British premier pointed out: “The anger and impatience of the world will be uncontainable unless we make this COP 26 in Glasgow the moment when we get real about climate change and we can get real on coal, cars, cash and tree. We have the technology to deactivate that ticking doomsday device.”
