A landmark report by UN scientists has been described as a “code red for humanity”, as it details grim realities such as rising sea levels, and more intense and frequent heatwaves.
A recent survey – which included over half a million 14 to 18 year olds – suggests people are in favour of policy changes to boost renewable power and sustainable jobs.
But on an everyday level, what can we actually do? How can we make a difference when it seems like everything has a bad impact on the climate?
