Alongside Sir David Attenborough at the event, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that “2020 must be the year we turn the tide on global
warming” and is setting out these plans as part of the UK’s commitment to hit a 2050 net zero emissions target. The PM called for international efforts to reach net zero as early as possible through investment in cleaner, greener technology, preservation of our natural habitat and measures to improve resilience to climate change impact. David Attenborough said: “Now although we have agreed on the problem we have to do something about it. We don’t need to emphasise that the longer we leave it... the worse it is going to get. So now is the moment. It is up to us to organise the nations of the world to do something about it.”
